What is the main benefit of Screaming Architecture?

The main benefit is that your project structure reveals the business intent of the system at a glance, making it easier to navigate, maintain, and scale by grouping related logic into feature-based slices.

Is this skill limited to .NET projects?

While the provided templates are optimized for .NET and React Native, the core principles of vertical slice organization and Screaming Architecture can be applied to any modular software project.

How does this skill handle dependencies between features?

It enforces loose coupling by recommending service-to-service communication via interfaces, read-only direct database queries, or event-based communication rather than direct internal referencing.

How does this skill prevent 'God Objects'?

By enforcing the Single Responsibility Principle within each vertical slice, the skill ensures that logic is partitioned into focused services and models rather than centralized, bloated classes.

API Development

Organizes software projects using vertical slice architecture to ensure the directory structure reflects business intent rather than technical frameworks.

About

This skill empowers Claude to implement Screaming Architecture principles, prioritizing domain-driven design through vertical slices. By organizing code into feature-specific folders—containing their own controllers, services, repositories, and models—the skill ensures high cohesion and minimal coupling within your codebase. It provides strict guidance on dependency rules, helps avoid common anti-patterns like technical layering or 'god objects,' and streamlines the onboarding process for new developers by making the system's purpose immediately apparent from its file structure.
