Background Context

This is a TDD Sandbox to shake out the kinks in an upcoming open source project that will modernize CTF competition softwares.

The main goals of this project are:

• Get my DDD Bounded Contexts framed correctly
• Implement those bounded contextes in a hexagonal architecture
• Adapt those contexts with REST adapters, preferably with hypermedia
• Develop all this code in TDD, following Valentina Jemuovic's suggested way. Her site is Optivem journal. You can also follow her on LinkedIn
