Use Commanded to build your own Elixir applications following the CQRS/ES pattern.

Provides support for:

• Command registration and dispatch.
• Hosting and delegation to aggregates.
• Event handling.
• Long running process managers.

Commanded provides a solid technical foundation for you to build on. It allows you to focus on modelling your domain, the most important part of your app, creating a better application at a faster pace.

You can use Commanded with one of the following event stores for persistence:

• EventStore Elixir library, using PostgreSQL for persistence
• Greg Young's Event Store.
