monoliths

Monolithic architecture patterns including modular monolith design, monolith-first strategy, and migration paths to microservices via the Strangler Fig pattern. USE FOR: monolith-first strategy, modular monolith design, monolith decomposition, Strangler Fig migration, avoiding Big Ball of Mud, when to keep a monolith DO NOT USE FOR: microservice decomposition (use microservices), event-driven architecture (use event-driven), clean architecture layers (use dev/craftsmanship/clean-architecture)
