A robust, scalable, and flexible architecture for developing RESTful APIs with Laravel using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles.
Laravel is an excellent framework for building Powerfull Apps, offering a rich set of features and a clean syntax. However, as projects grow in complexity, it's easy for the codebase to become unmanageable. The absence of a clear architectural pattern can lead to a mix of responsibilities, making the code harder to maintain and scale.
This repository presents a way to structure Laravel projects using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles, allowing for better organization, scalability, and separation of concerns. The approach showcased here is inspired by best practices and aims to solve real-world challenges in a practical and maintainable way.
The goal is to provide a solid foundation for building Laravel applications that are.
- 🧩 Easy to Understand. A well-organized codebase with clear boundaries.
- 🛠️ Maintainable. Follow DDD principles to keep concerns separated.
- 📈 Scalable. Designed to grow with your application's needs.
- 🔒 Secure. Focused on applying security best practices.
- 🔥 Performant. Built with performance considerations from the ground up.

When using this project, you have flexibility in how you manage your API documentation. If you prefer, you can delete the docs folder entirely. Although API documentation files exist there, you’ll find that the public folder also contains API documentation, which is automatically served at http://localhost:8000 when you run your Laravel application.
This means you can focus solely on updating the public/openapi.yml file for your API documentation. Alternatively, if you prefer working within the docs folder, you can maintain your OpenAPI documentation in docs/openapi-view/public/openapi.yml. The choice is yours, allowing you to manage your API documentation in the way that best suits your workflow.
