• Technical Documentation : Contains information about the architecture and set up of the platform. Most useful for engineers who want to maintain or further develop the platform.
• Architecture Decision : Contains the rationale for decisions the team has made about the platform's architecture. Most useful for engineers who want to maintain or further develop the platform.
• Spikes : Contains information gathered by the team during technical 'spikes' when we explore different solutions. Most useful for engineers who want to maintain or further develop the platform.
