Brick by brick

A simple method for architectural integrity of systems

Huge complicated systems can only be made brick by brick. Each brick is one complete piece of the system.

Doing it like this has a few advantages:

• Prevents overwhelm

• Ensures each piece works properly by itself

• Allows you to build most important pieces first

• Easily and clearly connect each piece as required

• Group similar pieces together for better organisation

• Gives you the freedom and control to shape the entire system as needed

• Easily repair or update only the required pieces

• Make it easy for others to follow along and work with / on it

I think you get the drift. Do share any more points you can think of!
