Introduction
If you can't do something smart, do something right.
― Shepherd Book, Serenity.
Something can be smart in one time period but not in another. We need to be ready to update our systems as needed over time. Everything changes, and nothing stays the same indefinitely. However, if we design systems the right way from the beginning, we can adapt and update them as necessary, ensuring they remain effective and relevant in an ever-changing world.
The primary goal of Machanism is to provide a comprehensive platform for developing functional libraries that cater to a wide range of needs, regardless of the domain or industry. To fulfill this purpose, Machanism embraces an architectural style that prioritizes:
- Modularity
- Maintainability
- Flexibility
ensuring that the developed solutions are capable of evolving alongside changing requirements and technological advancements.
At its core, Machanism is built on the foundational principles of Clean Architecture1, which promote the separation of concerns, reusability, and adaptability. These principles ensure that business logic remains central while external details, such as frameworks and tools, remain loosely coupled and replaceable. This approach enables developers to create predictable and scalable solutions that emphasize reusability and clarity.

Seed Projects
A critical pillar of Machanism’s framework is the concept of Seed Projects, which act as crystallization points for modular development. Each Seed Project provides a clearly defined foundation for development, including:
- A base programming language, ensuring compatibility and consistency.
- Core entities, which represent the starting point for defining essential domain-specific data models and related business rules.
By offering this robust starting framework, Seed Projects enable teams to focus on implementing functionality without the need to reinvent common foundational elements. This accelerates development cycles while maintaining high standards of modularity, scalability, and maintainability.
Machanism empowers developers to build technology-agnostic systems that adhere to these rigorous architectural standards—delivering solutions that grow with your needs in an ever-evolving technological landscape.
The Seed Project adopts an API-First approach—focusing not on traditional REST APIs but on well-defined entities and use cases that form the foundation of the Seed core module.
These foundational elements provide a robust starting point for designing modular systems.
In addition to entities and use cases, the Seed Project offers other necessary modules to implement a minimum viable product (MVP), streamlining initial development and ensuring scalability and consistency across your projects. It also defines the Technology Stack and Business Domain, providing a clear context for building solutions tailored to specific requirements and use cases.
By serving as a starting point for new projects, Seed Projects eliminate the overhead of reinventing the wheel and encourage consistency across teams and systems. For more information, please see: Seed Project.
Beyond Seed Projects, the ecosystem allows for Non-Seed Projects—extensions or application-specific implementations—and MachaOn Projects, which integrate Core and Application layers into complete systems ready for deployment. This structured hierarchy ensures flexibility while maintaining alignment with Machanism’s Clean Architecture-first philosophy.
Final Product Assemblies - MachaOn
MachaOn Projects represent the culmination of the Machanism ecosystem, where reusable components and modular libraries come together to create fully operational applications and systems. These projects integrate Core APIs, entities, workflows, and application-specific layers to deliver end-user products that are scalable, adaptable, and ready for deployment across diverse environments.
By leveraging the structured hierarchy provided by Seed Projects and Non-Seed Projects, MachaOn Projects assemble complex systems while preserving adherence to Clean Architecture principles. They are built to address specific business use cases, combining modular foundations with application-level customizations to meet user demands.
What sets MachaOn apart is its ability to balance reusability and specificity. While the modular components remain aligned with Clean Architecture and retain their adaptability, the final product becomes laser-focused on delivering functionality to the end user.
