Human‑Centered API Design with DDD and AI

In many organizations, APIs are treated as technical contracts — neat documentation of endpoints and payloads.

But what if APIs could become something more: living expressions of the business domain itself?

This talk examines how Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and modern API craftsmanship converge to establish a shared language between people and systems. We’ll walk through how techniques like Domain Storytelling, Event Storming, and Context Mapping can lead directly into OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specifications that reflect real domain intent — not just data structures.

How can LLM help?
Along the way, we’ll see how Large Language Models (LLMs) can amplify human creativity — helping teams turn visual domain artifacts into executable API contracts while preserving intent and nuance. Instead of replacing design thinking, AI becomes a collaborator in the craftsmanship process.

Through practical examples, we’ll explore how bounded contexts define API boundaries, how ubiquitous language shapes resource and event models, and how contract-first design enables safe, evolutionary change. By the end, you’ll see APIs not merely as integration points, but as living domain boundaries to align architecture, business, and shared understanding.
