> Using a factory or builder pattern to create controls is a great way to reduce the number of lines of code in an application and can also help standardize your application.
> There are 2 common pattners for doing this, one is the factory pattern, for example:
>         Table sizesTable = new Table("sizes");
>         ControlFactory.addColumn(table, "label", "Metric");
>         ControlFactory.addColumn(table, "value");
> The other is the builder pattern, for example:
>         Table sizesTable = TableBuilder.simpleBuilder("sizes").addColumn("label", "Metric").addColumn("value").build();
> Both of these styles have pros and cons.  Please see attached examples.
