Decompose your PHP monolith. Without microservices chaos.
Every feature makes the monolith more complex, every change more risky. The problem is not size. The problem is missing structure. Jardis gives your PHP monolith internal boundaries without tearing it apart.
Why monoliths don't fail because of code, but because of missing boundaries.
The monolith was fast at first. Then it grew. And with it, the implicit dependencies nobody documented.
Complexity grows exponentially
Every new class can call every other class. With 100 classes, that is 10,000 possible dependencies. With 1,000 classes, a million. Without boundaries, coupling grows quadratically, not linearly.
Changes have invisible side effects
A refactoring in the order process breaks invoicing. Not because the code is bad, but because both access the same tables and classes. Without domain boundaries, there is no safe change radius.
Conway's Law works against you
Three teams, one monolith. The result: three teams blocking each other. Not because they coordinate poorly, but because the architecture does not allow independent work.
How Jardis Enables PHP Monolith Decomposition.
Internal boundaries instead of external breakup. Bounded Contexts as standalone packages within your monolith.
Internal structure instead of external distribution
Jardis generates Bounded Contexts as standalone PHP packages with their own directory structure. Order, payment, customer are physically separated, not by naming conventions. Your monolith gets internal boundaries without switching to microservices.
Coupling becomes visible and controllable
Each generated package has its own dependency structure. The builder enforces: order cannot access customer internals. Communication goes through defined contracts. The implicit dependencies of your monolith become explicit and controllable.
Work independently in the same repository
Bounded Contexts define team boundaries at the code level. Each team owns its package, knows its contracts, and can deploy independently. Conway's Law suddenly works for you, not against you.

Why Teams with Complex Monoliths Choose Jardis.
Because adding boundaries is easier than rewriting everything.
Boundaries in Code, Not Just in Heads
Bounded Contexts at the filesystem level. Order cannot access payment tables. Not because there is a rule, but because the architecture physically prevents it.
First Bounded Context in Hours, Not Months
Define the schema, start the builder. The first Bounded Context is ready in hours. Your team migrates business logic into the generated structure while the rest of the monolith keeps running.
Modular Monolith Today, Microservices Tomorrow
The generated packages have clear contracts. You can run them as modules within the monolith or extract them as independent services later. The decision comes when you are ready, not now.

Answers about structuring monoliths with Jardis.
No. Jardis generates a modular monolith: standalone Bounded Contexts as PHP packages within your existing system. Microservices are an option for later, not a requirement. The hexagonal architecture makes both possible.
