# Tips for Developers New to ABP Framework

**[We Are .NET](https://daily.dev/sources/wearedotnet)** · 13 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A practical onboarding guide for ASP.NET Core developers learning ABP Framework. Covers the core learning barrier — understanding responsibility boundaries between domain, application services, DTOs, repositories, and UI layers. Explains why ABP feels heavy at first (project count, generated code hiding mechanics, DDD terminology), recommends starting with CRUD then progressing to real business modules, and outlines which DDD patterns real teams actually use versus simplify. Includes a concrete 8-step learning path, a 4-week team onboarding sequence, and a list of common beginner mistakes like forcing textbook DDD everywhere or ignoring built-in ABP features like authorization and auditing.
