How to organize your code for long term success
Most nontrivial software systems suffer from significant levels of technical and architectural debt. This leads to exponentially increasing cost of change, which is not sustainable for a longer period of time. The single best thing you can do to counter this problem is to give some love to your architecture by carefully managing and controlling the dependencies among the different elements and components of a software system. For that purpose we will introduce a DSL (domain specific language) that can be used to describe and enforce architectural blueprints. Moreover we will make an excursion into the topic of legacy software modernization.
