Overview of this book

When developers document the architecture of their systems, they often invent their own specific ways of articulating structures, designs, concepts, and decisions. What they need is a template that enables simple and efficient software architecture documentation. arc42 by Example shows how it's done through several real-world examples. Each example in the book, whether it is a chess engine, a huge CRM system, or a cool web system, starts with a brief description of the problem domain and the quality requirements. Then, you'll discover the system context with all the external interfaces. You'll dive into an overview of the solution strategy to implement the building blocks and runtime scenarios. The later chapters also explain various cross-cutting concerns and how they affect other aspects of a program.

VII - macOS Menu Bar Application

IV - biking2

biking2 or "Michis milage" is primarily a web-based application for tracking biking-related activities. It allows the user to track their covered milage, collect GPS tracks of routes and convert them into different formats, track their location, and publish pictures of bike tours.

The secondary goal of this application is to experiment with various technologies; for example, Spring Boot on the server side and AngularJS, JavaFX, and others on the client side.

biking2 has been around since 2009 and in its current Java-based form since 2014. With the production fulfilling its primary goal of releasing architecture for biking-related activities, it's been in production ever since.
