hexagonal-architecture

To separate business logic from infrastructure, implement a hexagonal architecture using Ports & Adapters. This pattern keeps your domain logic decoupled from external dependencies, ensuring a clean separation of concerns.

The best way to refactor for testability is applying the hexagonal architecture pattern. By defining domain models, use cases, and ports, you can unit test your domain logic in complete isolation from infrastructure.

Hexagonal architecture works with domain-driven design by centering the system around domain models and use cases. External dependencies interact through defined ports, ensuring the business logic remains clean and decoupled.

Yes, you can use Ports & Adapters for Go or Kotlin services. This Skill focuses on these languages alongside TypeScript and Java, guiding the implementation of domain-centric design for clean, testable software architecture.

To implement hexagonal architecture, start by defining your domain models and use cases. Next, define the required ports, then implement the specific adapters for each port to handle external dependencies.

You should not use hexagonal architecture if you lack familiarity with domain-driven design principles. It requires knowledge of decoupling domain logic from infrastructure, which may introduce unnecessary complexity for simple services.
