CONWAY'S LAW: THE HIDDEN FORCE SHAPING YOUR SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURE
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
Conway's Law states that software architecture often reflects the communication structure of the organization that created it. This means teams tend to create software components aligned with their own structure, even if a different architecture would be more efficient. Engineering managers and developers should focus on designing their teams well, which inherently leads to better software architecture.
