Guide to Hexagonal Architecture
Hexagonal Architecture is a software architecture that centers around the idea to isolate the core business of an application and separate out input and outputs to a system.
In this article I explain three topics
- Problems in Designing applications
- Main Principles
- Components of Hexagonal Architecture
I also explain how to use this in real-world with a example of payment application.

Do share it with your community. Hope you learnt something new!
This could be a stupid question, but it seems like only four aspects/sides of the hexagon have concepts attached. Was hexagonal just cooler sounding?
Hey, so in the example I shared I tried to keep it simple. The main idea behind hexagonal is to not have more than 3-4 ports on input/server side. Else it would defy the purpose if you have new port for each entity.
Hope this clears the doubt.
