Architecture as Code: Scalable Design with C4 and LikeC4

How do you communicate complex software architecture clearly across teams, stakeholders, and systems? In this talk, we’ll explore how to model software architecture as code using the C4 model and LikeC4. You’ll learn how to move beyond static diagrams and whiteboard photos to a living system of scalable, maintainable architectural views. Whether you're modernizing legacy systems or launching new cloud-native platforms, this session will show you how to describe your architecture in a way that's both precise and developer-friendly.

Join us for our last event hosted at Boise CodeWorks, who we profusly thank 🙏 for their continued support over the years hosting not only this group, but other community groups and events, including Boise Code Camp 2024!

Delivered by our very own group organizer
