This list is WIP.
Articles
These are short articles describing what DDD is. They are generally good points to start with and are easy to refer to when one needs a quick recap.
- What is Domain-Driven Design (DDD) by Mathias Verraes
- Domain Driven Design by Martin Fowler
Videos
- What is DDD by Eric Evans (DDD Europe 2019)
Evans explains some of the most important concepts related to DDD while taking a critical look at how we traditionally think about models. Suggests asking “hich model would be more useful to solve this problem” instead of relying on our understanding of objects “in real world”. He also emphasizes the importance of communication with domain experts an use of ubiquitous language.

Thank you! Have you thought about pinning this post or adding it to the sidebar?
Done (I think?). Didn’t have much time yesterday to tidy things. Will try to update things today when I get some more time :)
I’m glad we have a DDD community, kudos to you for taking up the job of moderating it!
I’m a excited about this. Hopefully we can get something going together.
Me too. The threadiverse needs lots of good content. I’m spending a lot of time building my own community but I’ll try to post here too.
