Bounded Context Canvas how to

The bounded context canvas is described in this blog post by Nick Tune (highly recommended blog btw).

Basic draw.io Usage

• Checkout this repository
• Head over to draw.io
• Click "Open Existing Diagram"
• Select the bounded-context-canvas-template.drawio.svg template
• Make sure to have the "Content" layer activated and unlocked to fill your Canvas

Advanced Usage / Optional Prerequisites

Besides the website, there are several options available to use draw.io:

• Download Draw.io
• draw.io Diagrams for Confluence
• Use draw.io diagrams in Google Docs
• Visual Studio Code
  • VS Code
  • Draw.io Integration extension

Either way allows you to save the current template (draw.io and data filled in) as an SVG file (which can live next to the bounded context's code).

Doing so allows one to re-open the saved SVG file and update the filled in data.

Bounded Context Canvas How to

• Either continue from a canvas you already started or start from the bounded-context-canvas-template.drawio.svg.
• Fill it in with your team.
• Save the current file near the bounded context's code.
