The journey towards scalable and maintainable backend architecture began for me in August 2022, when I assumed the role of Head of Technology at Onenex. It was during this time that I introduced the team to the principles of Lucid Architecture, inspired by its potential to streamline and enhance large-scale backend projects.
I would like to express my gratitude to Nay Thu Khant for developing the Lucid Architecture-based Laravel starter kit, which served as a foundation for our backend initiatives. My appreciation also extends to the other developers who contributed their ideas and suggestions, enriching our approach.
We implemented Lucid Architecture in three major projects, gaining invaluable experience through code reviews and addressing challenges in production environments. Building on these learnings, we created Next Laravel, an architecture and package tool that refined the core concepts of Lucid Architecture. This new framework offered clearer principles and a more efficient implementation, significantly reducing overhead.
I am especially thankful to Nay Thu Khant for his instrumental role in developing and implementing the Next Laravel package.
When we initiated the Tikkat Project, I led the development team in utilizing Next Laravel, creating a robust backend starter kit tailored to its architecture. Subsequently, I applied Next Laravel to another freelance digital platform project after my tenure at Onenex.
Drawing from my experience with both architectural frameworks, I sought to create an improved and universally accessible solution—one that embodies the core strengths of its predecessors while offering enhanced scalability and clarity. This vision gave rise to Mojura Architecture, a concept designed to simplify and scale backend development for a broader audience.
