About the book
Domain-Driven Design presents an approach to software design in which code is modeled to match a business domain, drawing on the knowledge of that domain's experts. Rather than one unified model, a large system is split into bounded contexts, each with its own model. Class and method names follow the language of the business, a shared vocabulary known as the ubiquitous language. The book sets out concepts such as entities, value objects, aggregates, repositories, factories and services. It stresses close collaboration between technical and domain experts to refine a conceptual model of the core domain.
