The Reference Architecture

iPhone Sculpture by Roger Belveal @belvealART


I admit, my idea of a reference architecture is much like the iPhone sculpture - steal, concrete, a touch of plastic. So when @LancerKind of TDD.Academy (or YouTube channel) suggested that we refactor the InspireMe! Cards App into a Reference Architure so that creating new decks of card Apps would be simipler... well I was intrigued, but not sold. When he whipped out a marker and some heavy card stock paper... I thought oh crap....
