Build rich domain entities by using factory-based creation patterns with validation and private setters to enforce invariants. This ensures entities are valid from inception and prevents invalid states through controlled modifications.

Encapsulate domain entities by implementing private setters and controlled modifications to preserve invariants. State changes are routed through factory methods and behavioral logic within the entity itself.

Raise domain events by signaling them during entity state changes. This allows downstream processing and persistence to react to modifications while keeping behavior localized within the rich domain model.

Yes, the approach supports aggregate roots, child entities, and value objects with strict boundaries. It aligns with per-aggregate repositories to define clear persistence boundaries across the domain model.

The best way to create valid entities is using a Create factory method with validation. This guarantees valid domain entities from inception by enforcing invariants and encapsulation before persistence.

Avoid a rich domain model if your project does not require strict invariant enforcement or domain event signaling. If your logic is purely CRUD without complex behavioral rules, this approach adds unnecessary boilerplate.
