Clean Architecture Superpowers: 1-day Workshop

The rapid evolution of web frameworks, increasing user demands, and the power of Azure cloud services have transformed the approach to building enterprise applications. Numerous challenges exist, and initiating the process can be daunting. The right approach to learning can change that.

SSW's Clean Architecture Superpowers offers practical guidance and recommendations. We cover architecture, technologies, tools, and frameworks, examining strategies for organising your projects, folders, and files. Our goal is to design a system that is straightforward to build and maintain - both now and in the future - while taking full advantage of Azure's cloud capabilities.

Upon completing this 1-day course, you will have developed the foundation and structure for your next enterprise application, along with the knowledge to advance your enterprise application development to the next level, all within the Azure ecosystem.
