Architecting Microapps on HCL Domino with a mix of Vibe Coding, Event Bus, and Reimagination, Engage 2026

-

Next week I will be presenting the Breaking the Monolith: Architecting Microapps on HCL Domino session at Engage 2026 on April 21th.

Microapps are becoming more and more prevalent since the introduction of phone apps.  Now with vibe coding many are creating microapps. They are great for personal productivity, but not so for businesses. Businesses require microapps to be secure and communicate with their other systems. So vibe coding an entire app can be problematic. 

In this presentation, I will be combining a mix of vibe coding, no coding, AI and the event bus architecture that was presented last year at the October 2025 openNTF webinar to create a secure microapp architecture on HCL Domino. 

Hope to see you there next week. 

Abstract

While HCL Domino has traditionally been the home of monolithic applications, the modern landscape of low-code, no-code, and AI demands a more modular approach. Monoliths offer simplicity at the start but often result in scaling bottlenecks and 'brittle' codebases. This session explores the transition to a Microapp architecture—a strategy that unlocks faster development cycles, superior maintainability, and true scalability. Richard will demonstrate how to leverage Domino’s core strengths alongside a message-queue-driven design that was presented at October 2025 OpenNTF webinar to build flexible, independent application modules that are ready for the future of enterprise software.

Thank you everyone for attending my Engage 2025 session, Visualizing your Domino Data using Open Source Tools. Though I was up against some formidable sessions, I was surprised to have close to 30 attendees in my session. As promised, here is the PowerPoint presentation and sample databases and code. I would like to thank Kris and Tom for an incredible event and for selecting my session for this year's event. They did a wonderful job in continuing the tradition of making Engage a premium event.   After Engage 2025, I spent a day visiting different sites in The Hague.  The walk to the beach was a bit longer than I was told!  https://phoragroup.com/files/Visualize_Your_Domino_Data_with_Open_Source_Tools.pdf https://phoragroup.com/files/engagedemo.zip

Creating Twitter Bootstrap Widgets - Part I - Anatomy of a Widget Creating Twitter Bootstrap Widgets - Part II - Let's Assemble Creating Twitter Bootstrap Widgets - Part IIIA - Using Dojo To Bring It Together This is two part of my five part series "Creating Twitter Bootstrap Widgets".   As I mentioned in part one of this series, Twitter Bootstrap widgets are built from a collection standard HTML elements, styled, and programmed to function as a single unit. The goal of this series is to teach you how to create a Bootstrap widget that utilizes the Bootstrap CSS and Dojo. The use of Dojo with Bootstrap is very limited with the exception of Kevin Armstrong who did an incredible job with his Dojo Bootstrap, http://dojobootstrap.com. Our example is a combo box that we are building to replace the standard Bootstrap combo box. In part one, we built a widget that looks like a combo box but did not have a drop down menu associated with it to allow the user to make a select...
