Architecture Decision Framework

"Requirements drive architecture. Trade-offs inform decisions. ADRs capture rationale."

🎯 Selective Reading Rule

Read ONLY files relevant to the request! Check the content map, find what you need.

File	Description	When to Read
`context-discovery.md`	Questions to ask, project classification	Starting architecture design
`trade-off-analysis.md`	ADR templates, trade-off framework	Documenting decisions
`pattern-selection.md`	Decision trees, anti-patterns	Choosing patterns
`examples.md`	MVP, SaaS, Enterprise examples	Reference implementations
`patterns-reference.md`	Quick lookup for patterns	Pattern comparison

Core Principle

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

Start simple
Add complexity ONLY when proven necessary
You can always add patterns later
Removing complexity is MUCH harder than adding it

Validation Checklist

Before finalizing architecture:

Requirements clearly understood
Constraints identified
Each decision has trade-off analysis
Simpler alternatives considered
ADRs written for significant decisions
Team expertise matches chosen patterns
