Hi Simon,

What is the methodology that you used in your book to improve the developers in terms of software architecture skills?
Did you choose to generally use the examples from the real world projects that you involved/experienced?
Or do you present your book in a way that aims to teach generic principles of software architecture in a more theoretical way?

Thanks

Hi Fakih. The book is a mix of theory and practical content, but basically it's about introducing a minimal set of lightweight software architecture practices that include doing "just enough" up front design, communicating the resulting software architecture through a collection of simple sketches and ensuring that any high priority risks are taken care of. It's all based upon my own experience of building software systems and represents how I build software myself. To solidify everything, there are some example software architecture sketches and documentation for an open source project of mine.
