Domain-Driven Design (DDD) is a software development approach that connects complex business domains with technical implementation. By creating a shared language between business experts and developers, DDD helps teams build software that accurately reflects business needs and can evolve with changing requirements.
A shared vocabulary between technical and domain experts
Explicit boundaries between different parts of the domain
Techniques for large-scale structure and integration
Implementation patterns for expressing domain models in code
In today's complex software landscape, traditional development approaches often fail to address the heart of business problems. DDD provides a framework for tackling complexity at its source—the business domain itself—resulting in software that's more maintainable, adaptable, and aligned with business goals.
