SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a structured approach to building Python backend applications using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles and the COLA clean architecture, ensuring maintainable, scalable, and well-organized codebases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Layered Architecture: Implements the Adapter, Application, Domain, and Infrastructure layers for clear separation of concerns.
  • DDD Principles: Guides the implementation of Entities, Value Objects, and Gateways.
  • Directory Structure & Naming Conventions: Enforces consistent project organization and naming for Python/Flask/FastAPI projects.
  • Use Case: Refactor an existing monolithic Python application into a DDD-aligned, layered architecture to improve modularity and testability.

Quick Start

Create a new Python project following the COLA architecture guidelines.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure a FastAPI project using Domain-Driven Design and clean architecture?

To structure a FastAPI project using Domain-Driven Design, implement the COLA clean architecture by separating your codebase into adapter, application, domain, and infrastructure layers for strict separation of concerns.

How do I refactor a monolithic Flask application into a layered architecture?

Refactor a monolithic Flask application into a layered architecture by migrating business logic into domain entities and value objects, then delegating external concerns to adapter and infrastructure layers following COLA guidelines.

What is the COLA architecture in Python backend development?

COLA architecture in Python backend development is a clean architecture framework that organizes code into adapter, application, domain, and infrastructure layers to enforce separation of concerns and improve maintainability.

Can I use this clean architecture approach with both Flask and FastAPI?

Yes, you can use this clean architecture approach with both Flask and FastAPI, as the DDD and COLA principles enforce framework-agnostic separation between adapter, application, domain, and infrastructure layers.

When should I implement DDD principles in my Python application?

Implement DDD principles in your Python application when you need to refactor a complex monolithic codebase into a modular structure, ensuring scalable backend development and strict separation of concerns across architectural layers.
