Success Metrics
Each milestone is evaluated against the following success metrics:
- Functionality: All specified features are fully implemented and tested
- Performance: System meets or exceeds performance benchmarks for the target environments
- Code Quality: All implementations follow the compositional architecture principles
- Documentation: Features are fully documented with clear examples
- Developer Experience: APIs are intuitive and well-integrated with the development workflow
Implementation Strategy
The implementation follows these key principles from ADR-007 and ADR-008:
- Function Composition Over Inheritance: Building complex behaviors by composing simple functions
- Pure Functions with Explicit Dependencies: Functions with predictable outputs and clear dependencies
- Promise-based APIs: Using promises for asynchronous operations instead of reactive streams
- Environment Adaptability: Different implementations for different runtime environments
- Operation-Based History: Tracking content changes as operations that can be replayed or reverted
- Vector Clock Synchronization: Using vector clocks for distributed content operations
