Add new documents to:
- Implementation Guides: When starting a new sprint
- Analysis: When doing competitive research or architecture work
- Archive: When a sprint completes
Update status when:
- Sprint starts (change from "Planned" to "In Progress")
- Sprint completes (change to "Complete", move detailed tasks to archive)
- Major architectural decisions are made
Archive when:
- Sprint completes and consolidated guide exists
- Individual task documents are superseded by implementation guides
- Documents are outdated but have historical value
Delete when:
- Document is duplicate with no unique value
- Information is wrong or misleading
- Document is draft and never completed
Current Archive:
- Sprint 1, 2, 3 detailed task documents
- Individual Sprint 3 task guides (consolidated into Sprint-3-Implementation.md)
Q: Where do I start if I'm a new developer? A: Read Sprint-3-Implementation.md to understand what's built, then Sprint-4-Implementation-Guide.md for what to build next.
Q: What if I need to understand a specific feature? A: Check the Table of Contents in the relevant implementation guide. All guides have detailed TOCs.
Q: How do I know what's already implemented? A: Each implementation guide has a "Status" section at the top showing completion state.
Q: Where are the API specifications? A: Sprint-4-Implementation-Guide.md has complete API specs for all endpoints.
Q: Where are the test requirements? A: Each task section has "Definition of Done" including test coverage requirements.
