Architectural Metapatterns

The main content of this repository is my book Architectural Metapatterns: The Pattern Language of Software Architecture (2024-2026). It provides:

• A compendium of architectural patterns and styles
• An ontology of patterns based on their structure and function
• A brief overview of basic principles of software design
• A comparison of ways in which various patterns approach the same problems
• A map of evolutions of software architectures

The book can be downloaded in PDF or EPUB format from the latest release, or read online as a website or wiki. The book's diagrams and ODT file are also available under the CC BY license.

There is also a Leanpub page with testimonials and detailed table of contents, and the original (outdated) Medium series.

Introductory slides are available for download or reading online.
