Re: Architecture Patterns with Python
#2I’m a Typescript dev but this book is one of my favorite architecture books, I reference it all the time. My favorite pattern is the fake unit of work/service patterns for testing, I use this religiously in all my projects for faking (not mocking!!) third party services. It also helped me with dilemmas around naming, eg it recommends naming events in a very domain specific way rather than infrastructure or pattern specific way (eg CART_ITEM_BECAME_UNAVAILABLE is better than USER_NOTIFICATION). Some of these things are obvious but tedious to explain to teammates, so the fact that cosmic python is fully online makes it really easy to link to. Overall, a fantastic and formative resource for me!

#3Unfortunately https://www.cosmicpython.com/book/ does give a 404 - this is a very bad architectural choice for web applications. I hope their other tips are better.

#4Truly one of the great python programming books. The one thing that I found missing was the lack of static typing in the code, but that was a deliberate decision by the authors.

#5I have this on my shelf. It's a small volume, similar to K&R, and like that book mine is showing visible signs of wear as I've thumbed through it a lot.

#6Excellent sequel to the goat book (TDD with Python), that got me to deploy my first real web application.

I haven't seen this book before, but I noticed that one of the authors, Harry J. W Percival, is the author of the TDD "goat" book.

That book is in a similar place in my heart, I barely used Python in my professional life, yet it's a book I often come back to even if I'm using a different language. It's also great that book is available both online and in paper form.
I'll definitely give this book a chance!

#8Even though most people might think of web architectures when it comes to this book, we used this to design an architecture for an AI that optimises energy efficiency in a manufacturing factory.
Great book!

I saw that a new, updated version of that book will be released this year.

#10This was a great read and summary! About three years ago, I worked in a C#/.NET DDD environment, and now revisiting these concepts in Python really distills the essential parts. As I said, great read — highly recommend it if you're also into this kind of stuff.
