Ponderances on using media-type representation as a mechanism for partitioning use-cases on a resource under different contexts.

Please do not read any of this with an "absolute" tone. These are merely my thoughts on a problem based in my current understanding and some experience. To be honest, I would not be surprised if this is already being done by individuals more experienced than I at building REST APIs, but I think it is worth discussing as I have yet to find anything like this blogged about. I present this with utmost humility in order to foster discussion; not to create devolving argument.

Some Background

I believe that usage of media types in examples on the web demonstrating "how to build" RESTful APIs is too narrowly focused. In my experience, much of the discussion around them seems to be solely focused on their usage either in content-negotiation or applying versioning to an API.

*As an aside, versioning can be "controversial" itself as an "anti-pattern" of REST. I heard it argued that HATEOAS should be the answer to the problem that versioning works to solve. This is an aside and not the focus of this ponderanc

Discussing how to make DDD easier to learn.

Edit: A bit of context as more than expected are happening upon the gist.

This is in response to a conversation between a few engineers I consider experts in their respective fields:

  • Jeffrey Way (of Laracasts) as a technical educator aiming to investigate exposing newcomers to DDD in an easier-to-digest/grasp way.
  • Konstantine Kudryashov (Behat, phpSpec, Inviqa) as a BDD consultant
  • Mathias Verraes (dddinphp.org, http://verraes.net/) as a significant DDD resource and independent consultant.

Additional context can be sought reading backwards from https://twitter.com/mdwheele/status/527233999744557056. The stream is a bit broken, but the general gist/context is there.
