Frequently Asked Questions about elixir-planning

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan Elixir application architecture using domain-driven design?▼

Plan Elixir application architecture by establishing domain boundaries, defining data ownership, and mapping context relationships before writing code. This ensures the system is well-structured, maintainable, and scalable.

What is the best way to design process supervision and OTP topologies in Elixir?▼

Design process supervision and OTP topologies in Elixir by using structured guidelines for process creation and failure handling. This approach ensures resilient applications that gracefully degrade during errors.

How do I choose between architectural styles like CQRS and event-driven for Elixir?▼

Choose between architectural styles like CQRS, hexagonal, and event-driven for Elixir by consulting architectural decision tables. These tables help match specific communication patterns and integration needs to the right style.

When do I need to define domain boundaries and data ownership in Elixir applications?▼

Define domain boundaries and data ownership in Elixir applications when structuring complex systems to enforce context relationships. This separation is needed to maintain a maintainable and scalable codebase.

How do I handle inter-context communication and resilience in distributed Elixir?▼

Handle inter-context communication and resilience in distributed Elixir by applying specific integration patterns and failure-handling strategies. This ensures graceful degradation and robust communication across boundaries.
