A quick overview of contexture’s
Structure & Core Features
Structures following DDD ideas
Contexture allows you to document your system landscape using Domain-Driven Design ideas by following the structure of domains, subdomains, and bounded contexts. Bounded contexts can either be a part of a subdomain or a direct child of a domain.
Grid, Bubble & List Views
Contexture offers three different views:
The grid view in Contexture presents all of your domains using cards, providing a fast and easy-to-navigate overview of your system. Depending on your needs, you can choose to hide or display the names of the subdomains and bounded contexts within each domain.
The bubble view allows you to view the dependencies between domains at a glance, providing a visual representation of how different parts of your system are interconnected.
The list view presents a comprehensive overview of your domains, including all subdomains and bounded contexts. This view is particularly useful if you need to see all three levels of your system in one place.

Overview of Subdomains & Bounded Contexts
The domain details page offers a convenient tab bar interface that provides a swift summary of the domain's subdomains and its direct bounded context.
Bounded Context Canvas
The bounded context canvas is a digitalized version of the bounded context canvas template developed by Nick Tune. If you are not familiar with the canvas, you can check out the description by the DDD crew on Github to learn more about its uses.
Contexture allows you to switch between the V3 and V4 canvas templates, providing the flexibility to choose the version that best suits your needs.
Document teams, tools and processes using
Namespaces
Namespaces allow you to document information such as processes, teams, or other organizational purposes within Contexture. In fact, Contexture even provides templates for teams and tools, making it easy to create and customize documentation for your specific needs.
Search & Filter
Contexture provides the ability to search and also filter values within your namespaces, making it easy to locate and access specific information.
In addition, the tool offers various presentation modes, such as sunburst diagrams, that allow you to visualize your data. These visual modes can enhance your understanding of your system landscape and help you to identify patterns and relationships within your documentation.
