Context

We need to record the architectural decisions made on this project.

Decision

An Architectural Decision (AD) is a justified software design choice that addresses a functional or non-functional requirement of architectural significance. This decision is documented in an Architectural Decision Record (ADR), which details a single AD and its underlying rationale

We will use Architecture Decision Records, as described by Michael Nygard.

Consequences

See Michael Nygard’s article, linked above. For a lightweight ADR toolset, see Nat Pryce’s adr-tools.
