But ... "if this (koff, koff) old programmer might dare to say," far worse(!) than any "spaghetti code!" Don't design software this way. Your grandchildren will hate you for it.

@MikeRobinson :-) I remember having worked with low level event loops, and it was indeed very tricky. Especially as not all the vents were completely independent. But domain events are at a very different level of abstraction. Moreover, in the storming workshop, the events are unrolled to make a chronological perspective that is really easy to understand. I don't think that it's a fatality to have unreadable code with event processing ;-) By the way, some CEP gurus pretend that every company is just an efficient distributed event processing engine.

Wow, great answer thank you! So as an example: for every item in an order, a warehouse picker needs to locate and scan that item then load it on a rack. If I needed to model that process but show that it loops, perhaps I could model it once with the 🔁 next to it, then have an event that says "All items picked" or something?
