Stefan Hofer (WPS - Workplace Solutions), dorota kochanowska (Workplace Solutions)
Average rating: ***..
(3.00, 1 rating)
When you want to apply domain-driven design (DDD), you must first master the domain. In this hands-on examination, Stefan Hofer, and Dorota Kochanowska show you how to build up domain knowledge with domain storytelling. Domain stories help you better understand a domain, identify what is core, segregate bounded contexts, and constitute ubiquitous language. Read more.

Average rating: ***..
(3.50, 2 ratings)
Data science, machine learning, and data manipulation and preparation are all core components of a future, trendy, world of software engineering. Many of these are built with "quick hacks," tiny scripts, or based on pipelines that are cobbled together from multiple components, frameworks, and the like. Mars Geldard and Paris Buttfield-Addison explore if software architecture matters to this world. Read more.

Kevlin Henney (Curbralan)
Average rating: ****.
(4.60, 5 ratings)
"It's just semantics." Semantics is all about meaning. If there's one thing we struggle with and need to get better at, it's the search for and clarification of meaning. Kevlin Henney explores how the very act of software development is an exercise in meaning—its discovery, its formulation, its communication. Paradigms, processes, and practices are anchored in ways of arriving at meaning. Read more.
