Learning DDD by doing ..

Hi!


I'm new to the list (and DDD), and have been reading articles a lot
last week or so about it. Very interesting topic!


So the other day I thought I want to start actually applying some of
the ideas I've read about, but first I needed a domain to model. Of
course I could have taken the bald step and tried to model a
subset/bounded context of one of the (legacy products) I'm working on
in my day job, but I soon felt it was too overwhelming to start even
(cannot see forrest because of all the trees being one feeling I had).


Instead I sat down and thought out a "toy problem" to play around
with... It's about a zoo and the yearly maintenance they need to do on
their enclosures (cages, fenced gardens and so on).


When I had done that, I immediately sat down and started hacking, and
hit a brick wall almost instantly. About a million design questions
showed up, and I thought "why don't I ask some experienced people how
they would design a domain around this problem instead"? It should be
simple enough given that the domain/problem is quite small...


So please, if anyone is upto it, please tell me how you would use DDD
on "The Zoo".
