The Evolution of Application Architecture: Crafting Code that Stands the Test of Time

Good software architecture is an art. Art of creating systems that are flexible, maintainable, and aligned with business goal.

But how do we create architectures that truly stand the test of time?

I've spent years wrestling with complex architectures, rescuing projects from the brink of disaster, and learning valuable lessons along the way. In today's episode, I want to share my journey through the evolution of application architectures – from simple three-tier models to the sophisticated designs of hexagonal, onion, vertical and clean architectures.

We'll explore all popular methodologies and discover how to craft software that not only works but also simplifies things. A lot.
