Architecture Decision Record Template

With our ADR template, you can:

Document the reasoning behind each significant architectural decision made during the design and development of your software system

Capture and evaluate alternative solutions that were considered, and the pros and cons of each option

Clearly outline the criteria used to evaluate the alternatives and ultimately select the chosen solution

Describe the chosen solution in detail, including any specific design patterns, technologies, or frameworks used

Highlight potential risks and trade-offs involved in the decision and identify implications for the system's future evolution
