This post is part of The Software Architecture Chronicles, a series of posts about Software Architecture. In them, I write about what I’ve learned on Software Architecture, how I think of it, and how I use that knowledge. The contents of this post might make more sense if you read the previous posts in this series.

Programming languages themselves are not an artefact of architecture, but I would feel that The Chronicles of Software Architecture would be missing something if I wouldn’t write about it.

So, let’s make a quick review of programming languages history, its evolution and check what we can learn from it. I’ve added some dates to the post just as a curiosity, they should be seen as rough estimates, the important is the evolution sequence and the problems they were trying to solve.

Software Architecture Premises

This post is part of The Software Architecture Chronicles, a series of posts about Software Architecture. In them, I write about what I’ve learned on Software Architecture, how I think of it, and how I use that knowledge. The contents of this post might make more sense if you read the previous posts in this series.

In this post, I establish the very first concepts about Software Architecture, that will be needed in order to better understand the following posts.

In this first post, I am going to talk about why I am writing this series of posts and what’s to come.
