Does it help with microservices planning?

Absolutely. It includes DDD strategic patterns like Bounded Contexts and Context Mapping, which are critical for successfully decomposing systems into microservices.

Can I use this for refactoring legacy code?

Yes, the skill is designed to assist in refactoring tightly coupled monolithic applications into more maintainable and modular architectures.

Is this skill specific to a certain programming language?

While the implementation patterns can be demonstrated in languages like Python, the architectural principles themselves are language-agnostic and applicable to any backend stack.

What architectural patterns does this skill support?

This skill primarily supports Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture (Ports and Adapters), and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) for backend development.

How does this skill improve system testability?

By enforcing a separation between core business logic and external infrastructure (like databases or APIs), it allows you to test the domain logic in isolation using mocks for ports and adapters.

Desarrollo de API

Implements industry-standard architectural patterns including Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, and Domain-Driven Design for scalable backend systems.

Acerca de

The Architecture Patterns skill provides specialized guidance for designing and refactoring complex backend systems using proven software engineering methodologies. It enables developers to implement Clean Architecture for strict dependency management, Hexagonal Architecture for technology-agnostic cores via Ports and Adapters, and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to manage complex business logic. This skill is essential for engineering teams looking to move away from tightly coupled monoliths toward maintainable, testable, and loosely coupled systems that can evolve alongside changing business requirements.
