Software architecture & design Videos Recommended on Hacker News (177)
Software architecture & design is one of the 150 topics Hacker News readers organize their video recommendations around. These 177 videos each earned real recommendations in real HN threads between 2009 and 2026 — 743 recommendations in total — and they're ranked by how many separate months the community kept coming back to them, not by view count.
Software architecture and design: object-oriented programming, design patterns, clean architecture, API design, microservices vs monoliths, data-oriented design, versioning, abstraction, simplicity, Alan Kay, Uncle Bob.
Why HN keeps sending people here — on RailsConf 2014 - All the Little Things by Sandi Metz: “this talk captures all the important values in a single example.” — an HN commenter, 2016.
