'(Growing Function-Oriented Software (With Parenthesis))

Have you ever asked yourself how did you end up with a big ball of mud? It doesn’t have to be like that. What’s preventing us from using rapid prototyping techniques aligned with a MVP mindset during your daily coding? I want to show, based on hands-on experience, how we can build apps that are simple, maintainable and enjoyable to work on. We’ll cover a few concepts ranging from DDD, hexagonal architecture, accidental vs essential complexity to the MVP mindset. By building a practical example in Clojure, we will understand concepts, once abstract, turn into reality for your next project.
