Is this suitable for small projects?

While these patterns are most beneficial for complex systems, using them in smaller projects can prevent technical debt as the application scales.

What specific architectural patterns are supported?

This skill supports Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture (also known as Ports and Adapters), and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles.

Can I use this skill with any programming language?

Yes. While the implementation examples often use Python, the architectural principles and directory structures are language-agnostic and apply to Java, Go, TypeScript, C#, and more.

How does this skill improve code testability?

By implementing Ports and Adapters, the skill helps you isolate business logic from external dependencies, making it easy to run unit tests using mocks for databases and external APIs.

API 开发

Implements professional backend architecture patterns including Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, and Domain-Driven Design for scalable systems.

关于

The Architecture Patterns skill empowers Claude Code to design, implement, and refactor complex backend systems using industry-standard frameworks. It provides specialized guidance on Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture (Ports and Adapters), and Domain-Driven Design (DDD), ensuring that your application's business logic remains decoupled from frameworks, databases, and external dependencies. Whether you are building a new microservice or refactoring a legacy monolith, this skill helps establish clear boundaries, improves testability, and ensures long-term maintainability through proven structural patterns and directory organization.
