"Domain-Driven Design is an approach to software development that centers the development on programming a domain model that has a rich understanding of the processes and rules of a domain. The name comes from a 2003 book by Eric Evans that describes the approach through a catalog of patterns. Since then a community of practitioners have further developed the ideas, spawning various other books and training courses. The approach is particularly suited to complex domains, where a lot of often-messy logic needs to be organized." -- Martin Fowler (link)

Rules

  1. Follow programming.dev rules
  2. Be excellent to each other, no hostility towards users for any reason
  3. No spam of tools/companies/advertisements. It’s OK to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the community should not be self-promotion.

Discussion: worst experience with domain-driven design? (programming.dev)

Anyone preaches the virtues and advantages of domain-driven design, its positive impact on maintainability and adding features, and how it improves developer experience. However, as all things in life, all roses have their thorns.

Has anyone had any negative experience caused directly or indirectly by domain-driven design? This might be a botched migration, problems during the requirements gathering stage, domain models ending up being too rigid/too permissive for an application, etc.
