Onion Architecture
by Matt Hidinger

Onion architecture exploits well-known patterns like dependency injection to promote true loose coupling between the core business logic and technical implementation of an application. Join us as we discuss this approach to building robust applications.


Notes

Matt presented an interesting way to invert software projects to attempt to minimize dependencies. Going far beyond simple inversion of control, Matt's proposed architecture takes the best traits of dependency injection and amplified them to '11'. The core concepts are well understood but combination was very interesting. Follow Matt's blog for more in the future.
