The architecture team has adopted Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) to record and manage architectural decisions in a composable, maintainable way for Linux Foundation engineering & devops.
Teams should integrate all Accepted decisions in their workflows via AI tooling or other means.
When the engineering is adding new functionality or making significant changes,
technical design documents should reference any relevant ADRs that the work is
conforming to, by using the format ADR-<number>, e.g., ADR-0001.
Please note that Accepted decisions are treated as stable. The architecture team will introduce changes to existing decisions by marking them as "Superseded" and creating a new decision.
The capitalized key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", and "MAY" distinguish between that which is required, recommended, or optional, as defined in RFC 2119.
The architecture team uses adr-tools to manage this repository.
Linux Foundation team members may inquire about proposed changes or contributions in the #lfx-architecture Slack channel.
