Hi members,

before all the end of year celebrations we have one more meetup in store for you.

The awesome folks at Spilberg are hosting us again, so this meetup will happen in the heart of Antwerp.

We're happy to announce that we will be able to feed you! At the start of the meetup there will be a foodtruck where you can get free burgers (and yes, there's a vegetarian option too, if that's how you roll). Send your thank you's to the kind folks at Spilberg who are paying for this.

At this 12th meetup of 2017 (yeah, we had one every month in 2017) you'll hear Jonathan talk about a great PHPUnit alternative called Atoum. Pim Elshoff will guide us through DDD on a technical level.

Don't forget to rate the speakers: https://joind.in/event/php-antwerp---december-meetup

We hope to see you there!

Technically DDD by Pim Elshoff (https://twitter.com/pelshoff)

You might have heard of Domain Driven Design. You may have heard DDD is a tool to write readable and change-ready code. You may have even heard DDD comes with a lot of talking, and modelling, and customers...

Starting with DDD sounds big, and scary, doesn't it?

But getting started is not scary! Come find out what DDD can do for your code, tomorrow. We'll use value objects, entities and services to bring order to our mind and code. We'll see how naming things can guide us, but also trick us. We'll rework a piece of code together and improve what it means. And tomorrow you can tell your peers that, technically, you're doing DDD.

Speaker: I've been a developer-for-hire for over a decade and a professional developer any time soon now. With over half that time spent working with scrum at Procurios, the agile mindset has really clicked for me. Technology will always be a passion of mine, but with more experience my focus has shifted to people. I'm enthusiastic, I've got a loud mouth and I'm professionally stubborn.
