DDD & PHP Architecture
Domain-Driven Design in PHP practice: Bounded Contexts, Aggregate Roots, Hexagonal Architecture, Ubiquitous Language. How the theory translates into code that still matches its original architecture eighteen months in.

Bounded Contexts in PHP. Physically separated, not just conceptual.
Bounded Contexts are the core concept of Domain-Driven Design, yet the boundaries rarely exist in code. Jardis generates each as a standalone PHP package with its own structure, entities, and rules.
Hexagonal Architecture. By Default, Not by Accident.
Implementing Ports & Adapters correctly takes weeks and deep architecture expertise. Jardis generates the complete hexagonal structure for every Bounded Context automatically: no deviations, no debates about folder structures.
Your project screams Laravel. Not your domain.
Clean Architecture PHP means the business logic does not know the framework exists. Jardis generates Robert C. Martin's concentric circles as a physical folder structure, not an architecture recommendation.
Your repository has 47 methods. That's the problem.
Repository Pattern PHP usually ends up as a God Class with findAll, findByUser, findActiveByMonth and dozens more methods. Jardis generates a 5-stage pipeline with separate read/write paths instead, physically enforced rather than by convention.
Jardis vs. Hand-Coded DDD
Manual DDD implementation requires deep expertise, months of setup, and delivers results that vary by developer skill. Jardis generates the entire infrastructure layer consistently, so your team focuses on domain logic.
Pure PHP. Real architecture. No framework in between.
You want DDD without framework dependencies. Good instinct. But building everything yourself means weeks spent on infrastructure that delivers no business value. Jardis generates framework-agnostic PHP code that does exactly what you want.
PHP Architecture That Enforces Itself
You define the architecture. The Jardis Builder enforces it at the filesystem level. Hexagonal architecture, CQRS, and Domain Events as generated structure, not as a convention nobody follows after sprint 10.
