Domain-Driven Design and Hexagonal Architecture for backend services

Forze is an infrastructure toolkit for building backend services with Domain-Driven Design and Hexagonal Architecture.

It provides a set of reusable primitives, contracts, and structural patterns that help organize backend applications into clear, maintainable layers.

Design Goals

Forze aims to support backend systems that are:

• Layered — clear separation between domain, application, and infrastructure
• Explicit — well-defined ports, adapters, and boundaries
• Testable — components can be tested in isolation
• Composable — infrastructure pieces can be replaced or extended
• Framework-agnostic — the core does not depend on a specific framework

The library focuses on providing structure and contracts, not a full-stack framework.

Quick Start

Install the core package:

uv add forze

Install with optional integrations:

uv add 'forze[fastapi,postgres,socketio]'

Authentication extras:

# First-party authn (Argon2 / PyJWT / email-validator)
uv add 'forze[authn]'

# Generic OIDC verifier (RS256/ES256/HS256, JWKS) for external IdPs
uv add 'forze[oidc]'

Documentation

Full documentation is available at https://morzecrew.github.io/forze/.

Agent Skills

Forze ships with AI agent skills for applications that use Forze as a dependency. Install them in your service repo so assistants follow correct wiring, handlers, and integration patterns:

# Install all skills
npx skills add morzecrew/forze

# Install a specific skill
npx skills add morzecrew/forze@forze-wiring

Skills follow the Agent Skills format. See skills/README.md for more details.

Versioning

Forze follows Semantic Versioning (SemVer). Pre-release builds may include experimental APIs and are not guaranteed to be stable.
