architecture

Enforce Clean Architecture by applying a mandated four-layer module structure (domain, infrastructure, application, UI) and validating inward-only dependency directions during module creation, PR reviews, and audits to prevent architectural drift.

The correct module structure for Clean Architecture feature modules uses four layers: domain, infrastructure, application, and UI. This structure enforces strict dependency rules and naming conventions to prevent architectural drift across the codebase.

Prevent architectural drift during PR reviews by validating cross-layer dependency rules to ensure inward-only dependencies. Apply architectural audit checklists to verify adherence to the four-layer module structure and naming conventions.

Run an architecture audit whenever you create or modify a feature module. The audit validates cross-layer dependency rules, checks the four-layer structure, and ensures module boundaries and naming conventions adhere to Clean Architecture principles.

Yes, you can validate cross-layer dependency rules by enforcing inward-only dependencies across the domain, infrastructure, application, and UI layers. This ensures module boundaries remain intact and prevents architectural drift.

Enforcing a four-layer module structure requires strict adherence to the domain, infrastructure, application, and UI layers. Modules that do not fit this architecture or require complex cross-cutting concerns may face constraints when validating dependency directions and naming conventions.
