Alessandro Colla and Alberto Acerbis share their battle-tested approach to domain-driven refactoring, explaining why you should start with understanding the business problem before touching a single line of code. Like Michelangelo seeing the statue of David hidden in marble, they show how the right solution already exists within your legacy codebase—you just need the right tools and techniques to set it free.From event storming workshops over beer to modular monoliths as stepping stones, these "double-A battery" developers prove that thoughtful, incremental refactoring beats flashy microservices migrations every time.RECOMMENDED BOOKSColla & Acerbis • Domain-Driven Refactoring • https://amzn.to/3I3I7zfEvans • Domain-Driven Design • https://amzn.to/3tnGhwmVernon • Implementing Domain-Driven Design • https://amzn.to/44r39PBNilsson • Applying Domain-Driven Design and Patterns • https://amzn.to/3GoxYwInspiring Tech Leaders - The Technology PodcastInterviews with Tech Leaders and insights on the latest emerging technology trends.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyBlueskyTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookCHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!
