Designing Business Entities

Define your core business objects (Entities) that encapsulate enterprise-wide business rules and remain stable.

What are Business Entities?

In Clean Architecture, Entities are the heart of your application. They represent the core business concepts and rules that are crucial to your enterprise.

Think of them as the fundamental building blocks that define "what your business is" and "how it works," independent of how you store or display data.

Core Business Rules

Entities encapsulate enterprise-wide business rules. These are rules that would exist even if there were no software system, like "a product must have a positive price" or "an order must have a customer."

These rules are stable and apply across your entire organization, not just a specific part of your application.
