Architectural Decision Records

Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) are documents that capture important decisions made during a project's development, particularly related to the architecture of a system. They outline the context, the options considered, and the reasons for selecting a particular approach. ADRs help teams maintain clarity over time, ensuring that everyone understands why certain choices were made and how they impact the project. This documentation is valuable for onboarding new team members, revisiting past decisions, and guiding future direction, ultimately contributing to better project outcomes and more efficient collaboration.
