Issue 432 - April, 9th 2020

I hope you are safe and healthy as you are reading this. I also hope that this newsletter brings a bit of normal back into your week. Please take a moment and read about the Drupal Association's #DrupalCares campaign and if you can, contribute to them during this time. They provide key infrastructure as well as support for the Drupal project and they could use our help now.

"Sticking to using just core APIs and concepts is enough to get past the coding standards stage in a codebase.

With that goal in mind, a few artifacts from Domain-Driven Design (DDD) were introduced to the Drupal projects. Those artifacts are Application Services and Request/Response Objects."
