Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

*WBR has a virtual island where everyone in the parish was required to
design/create an avatar. We hold meetings there, collaborate and there are many
resources available for our use. Our district tech person has provided professional
development through second life also. It is great because it allows us to meet
without having to be there physically. In addition, it is our own community of
people. Very convenient, efficient and effective.

*You name it, and Google has it. I use it every day. We use Google docs to share
documents at the school which is easier, faster and more efficient. In addition, Google
Drive keeps everything organized for us. We also share a calendar for upcoming
events, sports and use of the computer labs. I remember creating a Google site for an
assignment in grad school. It was great. I do love Google and I am learning new things
about what it has to offer often.

site where we can find resources for lesson plans, extended professional development
topics, webinars, content trailers, etc. It is a great tool. I have not used it to its full
capacity yet, but surely plan to as I learn more of its features. We also use it for on-line
courses at Nicholls, and it helps keep everything organized.
