Eric Normand, “Domain Modeling: How Rich Meaning Improves Your Code”

The field of software design aims to make our software easier to maintain and change. But it has failed. After years of design advice, we still face unreadable code, expensive changes, and growing refactoring backlogs. Domain modeling is a deeper approach. Instead of focusing on the superficial quality of code as software design does, domain modeling focuses on encoding deep meaning. If you encode a powerful model, your code will be more expressive, with fewer corner cases, and flexible enough to accommodate change. In this talk, I will outline the primary skills needed to successfully model a domain.

Bio: Eric Normand has been programming functionally since 2001. He aims to help the world make better software one model at a time. He lives with his family in Madison, Wisconsin. You can find his writing and other projects at ericnormand.me.
