Sergey Machulskis reviewed Domain-Driven Design by Eric Evans
Review of 'Domain-Driven Design' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
The book presents a very interesting approach to modeling complex domains, especially with established terms.
The code should look as a sentence said by a domain expert. That’s the core idea. The rest is a lengthy guide to listening to domain experts and mapping their sayings to the code.
Pros:
Brilliant idea, totally worth knowing
I could finally understand most of the content on Fowler’s blog
Cons:
It’s very hard to follow the author. If I haven’t seen DDD in practice, the book wouldn’t make sense to me at all.
It has no warnings about the wrong application of this approach. See Anemic Domain Model as an example.
