    MVC vs DDD: Go Language Architecture Deep Dive

    Compares MVC and DDD architectural patterns for Go applications, examining their structural differences, code organization approaches, and use cases. MVC organizes code by technical layers (Controller/Service/Repository) and suits smaller systems with stable requirements, while DDD structures code around business domains with four layers (Interface/Application/Domain/Infrastructure) and better handles complex business logic. The guide provides detailed directory structures, code examples, and implementation best practices for both patterns in Go, highlighting that MVC offers simplicity and rapid development while DDD provides better scalability and maintainability for complex systems.
