jMolecules is a set of Java libraries that let developers explicitly express architectural and domain-driven-design concepts (entities, aggregates, bounded contexts, layered architecture) directly in plain Java code via annotations and types. It also supports generating technical boilerplate and verifying/documenting the architecture from those declarations.

Use cases

• express DDD concepts like entities, value objects and aggregates in Java code
• mark bounded contexts and modules in a codebase
• generate JPA or other technical boilerplate from architectural annotations
• verify that code follows the intended architecture rules
• document software architecture directly in source code
• write domain models in plain Java without framework dependencies

When to choose

• you practice domain-driven design in Java and want concepts explicit in code
• you want architecture rules enforced via static analysis or ArchUnit rules
• you want to reduce boilerplate by deriving technical code from architectural intent

When to avoid

• you don't use DDD or layered architecture patterns
• you need a runtime framework rather than compile-time abstractions
• your team won't adopt annotation discipline
