Roadmap Divide and conquer Of layers and slices A plain
Java based approach
Architecture 101
Know your dependencies

Granularity Modules Layers Vertical slices Subsystems

Packages
….layer.slice ….slice.layer ….slice
….web.core ….service.core ….repository.core
….core.web ….core.service ….core.repository
….core ….customer ….account
"Why the f#$k should I even care?
"Does it make a difference?
Dependency management
"You only need to manage, what you can refer to…
Layers first Leaks slice internals Lower layers visible to everyone
Slices first/only Start with package per slice Expose interfaces and
domain types Keep implementations private
Slices first/only Encapsulates business module Internals understood anyway

as possible Get lenient where necessary
