Five things every developer should know about software architecture

Here are five things every developer should know about software architecture:

1. Software architecture isn’t about big design up front
2. Every software team needs technical leadership
3. The software architecture role is about coding, coaching, and collaboration
4. You don’t need to use UML
5. A good software architecture enables agility

This video of my "Software Architecture for Developers" talk explores these five things in more detail.
