We used to develop our application as a single DDD monolith (let’s call it the mother) with several smaller microservices around it (the children) to gain some specific advantages. Most of these microservices were built in Go, while the core monolithic service was developed in PHP 8.3.

The concept of "Never Just" highlights the complexities of problem-solving in software development and warns against oversimplifying issues with phrases like "Why don't you just...". Many developers face hidden constraints such as legacy code, business requirements, and technical debt, and they have likely already explored the obvious solutions. Instead of offering simplistic advice, it's better to ask for context, acknowledge the complexity of the problem, and foster respectful communication. The key takeaway is to approach discussions with empathy and an understanding of the intricate realities developers encounter, emphasizing that if a solution were truly simple, the developer would have likely already implemented it.

As always, like any other developer, I start with "Hello, World." It's the most traditional way to dip our toes into something new. We believe that when we start something, it should be as leisurely as possible. Since it's just a "Hello, World," I won't make it long either. I just want to mention that this blog will include posts about almost anything, but mostly about developing applications and DevOps topics. Additionally, I should mention that English is not my primary language, but I will do my best to write correctly and ensure that my posts are easy to understand.
