decorators
Room makeover professionals
Decorators are people who design and arrange interiors, or who apply paint and wallpaper professionally: We hired decorators for the living room.
In programming, a decorator is a function that wraps another function to modify its behavior without changing its code—a pattern especially prominent in Python, where decorators use the @ symbol: @login_required.
