Architecture Katas with Alex Bolboaca

I'm pleased to announce that our September workshop will be led by Alex Bolboaca on the subject of Architecture Katas. Alex is a leader in the Software Craftsmanship community in Romania, and one of the initiators of the movement in Europe.

Abstract

"How do we get great designers? Great designers design, of course." --Fred Brooks
"So how are we supposed to get great architects, if they only get the chance to architect fewer than a half-dozen times in their career?" --Ted Neward

The Architecture Kata is an exercise focused on practicing architecture. To attend this event you only need the will to learn, be open to have conversations about architecture and, of course, programming experience. You will not need a laptop.
