Clean Architecture Deliberate Practice

Project for learning Clean Architecture concepts created by Robert. C. Martin

Motivation

I want to learn if there is a way to develop web applications that are framework agnostic and based on what I know so far about Clean Architecture, that is one possible way of achieving it. Also, the Clean Architecture of Uncle Bob sounds to me like a very logical and natural approach for developing software, but I have doubts about how to implement it in the context of frontend development and when a stack is made of different programming languages. Therefore, my objective is to clarify these doubts and learn more in-depth the Clean Architecture concepts as formulated by Uncle Bob.

Deliberate Practice

• Build Practice Plans:
  • Define clear goals and select learning materials
  • Create deadlines and milestones for the project
  • Estimate time required and come up with weekly schedules
• Targetted Practice: I will develop a sample web application that implements the Clean Architecture and has its view layer in React and in Vue.
• Immediate Feedback: I will write blog posts that summarize my learnings and practice.

Performance Goals

The goals should be real, concrete things, instead of subjective values like "I want to understand...".

• Immediate: Read and summarize the book Clean Architecture
• Short Term: Write a blog post that explains with my own words the main concepts of the Clean Architecture.
• Medium Term: Create a web app in JavaScript/Typescript that implements the Clean Architecture principles. The web app will have a view layer in React and in Vue.
• Long Term: Learn how Clean Architecture could be applied to apps that use different programming languages for Backend and Frontend. (Review this).

Project Goals

• Outcome:
  • Create a web app in React and Vue that implements the Clean Architecture
  • Clearly define with my own words the main concepts of the Clean Architecture
  • Write 15 posts to track progress
• Curriculum: see the Planning Doc
• Timeframe: 2 months starting on the week of November 24th, 2020

Project Milestones

• Read The Clean Architecture book
• Build a Web App in React and in Vue that implements the Clean Architecture
  • Write class diagrams
  • Write flow of control diagrams
  • Write data flow diagrams
• Write 15 reports, one for each week
