Continuous Modeling vs Documentation Driven Development
Developers should adopt Continuous Modeling when working on complex systems requiring rigorous architectural governance, such as enterprise applications, safety-critical systems, or distributed microservices architectures, to prevent design drift and ensure consistency meets developers should use documentation driven development in projects with complex requirements, large teams, or strict compliance needs, such as in enterprise software, government systems, or safety-critical applications. Here's our take.
Continuous Modeling
Developers should adopt Continuous Modeling when working on complex systems requiring rigorous architectural governance, such as enterprise applications, safety-critical systems, or distributed microservices architectures, to prevent design drift and ensure consistency
Continuous Modeling
Nice PickDevelopers should adopt Continuous Modeling when working on complex systems requiring rigorous architectural governance, such as enterprise applications, safety-critical systems, or distributed microservices architectures, to prevent design drift and ensure consistency
Pros
- +It is particularly valuable in regulated industries (e
- +Related to: model-driven-engineering, continuous-integration
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Documentation Driven Development
Developers should use Documentation Driven Development in projects with complex requirements, large teams, or strict compliance needs, such as in enterprise software, government systems, or safety-critical applications
Pros
- +It helps prevent scope creep, facilitates better planning, and ensures that all team members have a shared understanding of the project goals before coding begins, leading to more maintainable and well-documented software
- +Related to: software-design, requirements-analysis
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Continuous Modeling if: You want it is particularly valuable in regulated industries (e and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Documentation Driven Development if: You prioritize it helps prevent scope creep, facilitates better planning, and ensures that all team members have a shared understanding of the project goals before coding begins, leading to more maintainable and well-documented software over what Continuous Modeling offers.
