Domain Map

The Domain Map shows high-level relationships between domains (bounded contexts).

What It Shows

Each node represents a domain. Edges show cross-domain connections:

  • API calls — One domain invokes another's API
  • Events — One domain publishes events another handles

This view answers: "Which domains talk to each other, and how?"

Layout

Domains are arranged in a hierarchical layout showing:

  • Entry point domains at the top
  • Infrastructure domains at the bottom
  • Related domains clustered together

Connection Inspector

Click an edge to open the Connection Inspector panel on the right:

The inspector shows:

FieldDescription

TargetDomain receiving the call or event
DirectionVisual arrow showing flow direction
ConnectionsList of individual API/Event connections
Component countsNumber of nodes in each domain

Each connection in the list shows:

  • Connection type (API or Event)
  • Component name
  • Click to view on Full Graph

Focus Mode

Click a domain node to enter focus mode:

  • Selected domain highlights
  • Connected domains remain visible
  • Unconnected domains fade

Click empty space to exit focus mode.

Node Tooltips

Hover over a domain to see:

  • Domain name
  • Total node count
  • Quick stats
