I watched more than 32+ hours of DDD courses on Pluralsight, and this is how I learned the fundamentals.

There's an entire learning path dedicated to Domain-Driven Design.

It's split into three sections:

And here's how I made the most of it.

I first read the book "Domain-Driven Design: Tackling Complexity in the Heart of Software" by Eric Evans.

Reading gave me an excellent foundation to start watching courses.

When I watch a course, I typically watch it at 2x speed and re-watch the crucial parts.

I only watch a course when I'm paying attention. Distracted watching leads nowhere.

The cool part about Pluralsight is that it saves where I left off, and I can easily continue from that point when I return.

The most important part is applying what I just learned. So I try out new ideas on a personal project, or better yet, on an actual project.

Learning by doing is the best way to acquire knowledge.

Here's a tentative learning path I suggest you try out:

A few more courses remain in the learning path, but they're pretty specific, so check them out if you have the time.
