Domain-Driven Refactoring (Jimmy Bogard)

Books, workshops, storming and more, all build up an idealized domain model. All describe great techniques for domain-driven greenfield applications. But what about the code we have? How can we take what's already built, and move it towards a better, more cohesive design? In this session, we'll look at anemic, procedural, boring code and examine code smells that can point us in the right direction. We'll also look at standard design patterns for more complex behaviors and models, and how to recognize when (and when not) to apply them. Finally, we'll cover how to safely apply refactoring techniques to achieve our domain-driven model nirvana. Outline of the session: • Domain-Driven Design primer • Data Models vs Domain Models vs Anemic Domain Models • Live Refactoring from Procedural to Fully Encapsulated Domain Models ABOUT JIMMY Jimmy is the creator and maintainer of the popular OSS libraries AutoMapper and MediatR.
