Clean Architecture vs Onion Architecture

I have been reading up on the Onion Architecture and today I found out about Uncle Bob's Clean Architecture.

For the life of me I cannot see any differences between them, they look identical (other than the naming convention).

Is there any differences between the two architectural styles? If yes, can you explain it to me please?

Cheers

Solution

  • The term "Clean Architecture" is just the name of the article. The onion architecture is a specific application of the concepts explained in the article.
