Design Documents

This section contains formal design documents that capture the architectural thinking, decision-making process, and implementation details for complex features in Eidetica. These documents serve as a historical record of our technical decisions and provide context for future development.

Purpose

Design documents in this section:

• Document the rationale behind major technical decisions
• Capture alternative approaches that were considered
• Outline implementation strategies and tradeoffs
• Serve as a reference for future developers
• Help maintain consistency in architectural decisions

Document Structure

Each design document typically includes:

• Problem statement and context
• Goals and non-goals
• Proposed solution
• Alternative approaches considered
• Implementation details and tradeoffs
• Future considerations and potential improvements

Available Design Documents
