Summary
In this chapter, you read your way through an experience of the Big Picture workshop to dig up all the implicit details and knowledge locked away in the minds of the make-believe domain experts. We also covered executable specifications and will be hearing more about them as we complete each new portion of the application. We were also introduced to ADRs and used them to log our first two decisions. This design and planning chapter concludes the first section of the book.
In the next chapter, Event Foundations, we will be developing the application using event-driven architectures. In the next chapter, we will make use of our first architecture decisions and lay the foundation for our modular monolith application.
