Solution Design Template

This is the per-solution template. Copy this template/ directory to solution-design/<solution-name>/, rename the heading to the solution name, and fill in the documents that fit the engagement.

The documents below are a suggested menu, not a mandated set. Delete the ones a solution does not need and add others if the engagement calls for them.

Keep this table current. It is the at-a-glance view of where each document stands.

Living-Doc Conventions

Every document in this set carries a status line, a last-updated date, and a note that it is a living document. When a topic stabilizes, copy the canonical version to developer-docs/, guides/, or user-docs/ — the version here stays as the living record. See the section overview and the how-to guide for the full conventions.
