Decision Log

These documents are used to track key decisions that are made during the course of the project. This can be used at a later stage to understand why decisions were made and by whom.

You should add an entry to the decision log if you have:

  • Made a decision to use a specific technology which could have significant impact on how folks work in this repo
  • Changed a technology that was in use before in favour of a new one
  • Made a decision not to use a technology for a specific reason
  • Solved a problem in a way which may appear peculiar/confusing without wider context

Log template

Save entry as [YYYY-MM-DD]-[name-slug] (for example 2022-02-15-deploy-pr-only.md):
