Introduction
The Fractal Framework is an open-source framework designed for building scalable and maintainable software applications.
It provides developers with a set of tools and guidelines for designing and implementing complex systems, allowing them to build high-quality applications that are easy to maintain and evolve over time.
The Fractal Framework is based on the principles of Domain-Driven Design (DDD), which emphasizes the importance of understanding the domain and aligning the software application with the business needs and goals.
Furthermore, the framework makes it almost impossible to not use SOLID principles and, especially via the Fractal Studio, stronly encourages CQRS for making changes to or reading data from entities. Because the framework's emphasis is on the SOLID principles and especially the dependency inversion principle (DIP), this naturally evolves into using a Hexagonal Architecture.
The framework also incorporates best practices for software development, such as modular design, loose coupling, and separation of concerns, to ensure that the resulting application is robust, flexible, and easy to extend.
With its focus on scalability, maintainability, and alignment with the business domain, the Fractal Framework is a powerful tool for developers looking to build software applications that meet the needs of the business and its users.
