Experiments with Django and Hexagonal Architecture

Overview

The project focused on exploring the integration of Hexagonal Architecture with Django has proven itself to be an insightful journey into Domain-Driven Design principles. Spanning over two and a half years of development, it encapsulates a wealth of knowledge and practical examples that evolve with each iteration. This initiative not only showcases the architecture's adaptability but also stands as a substantial resource for those looking to deepen their understanding of these methodologies.

Now in a maintenance state, the project remains relevant with ongoing dependency updates facilitated by Mend Renovate. Additionally, a robust test suite guarantees the stability and compatibility of the code, making it a trustworthy resource for developers interested in adopting Hexagonal Architecture within their Django applications.
