The basic premise of DDD is that the software developed has to be based on a conceptual model that is shaped together with domain experts. In short: the way experts reason about the problem is how we do it in code too. But how do you achieve that?

In this workshop, you will learn how to visualize a new model for an Amsterdam based startup. Then be introduced to several changes step by step to refine the model to be more suitable for the problems we want to solve.

During these exercises, you will get familiar with methods to look at problems from different angles. Through various tips, you will find ways to facilitate the process of 'Collaborative Modeling'. While doing this Marijn Huizendveld will apply a number of tactical DDD patterns and experience the advantages and disadvantages of doing so.
