Today I want to write about Architectural Decision Records and why everyone should be writing them, all the time. If you’re like me, you looked at the repo link and thought “dang, that’s alot. And everyone has opinions on them.” And I think you’re absolutely correct, and therefore you’ve already put ritual and taboo around them that you’re also thinking you don’t need in your life. But hear me out, I think the concept of the ADR needs to be less formal, and more of an every day occurrence.
