GoLuca: Accounting Application

Summary

GoLuca is an accounting application which implements the balanced by design accounting/software paradigm whereby each request creating an entry much be balanced. As such, the system can never become out of balance with proper validations. I regularly tinker on this application as I use it as my ‘playgound’ for testing out new things; so stability isn’t guaranteed.

However, the application demonstrates many of my application architecture thought processes as well as near real product code implementation. You’ll see I have proper error handling, proper logging, and even tracing (with local dev tracing, something I think is worth implementing on all loca dev environments!). Additionally you’ll see representation of domain driven design and various other deisng principles.
