Architecture Decision Record
One page recording a single decision, its context, the options rejected and the consequences accepted — written when the decision is made, never after.
The curriculum covers what an architect should know. This covers what an architect actually hands over: 22 artifacts, each with a worked example, a note on when it is worth producing, who reads it, and the ways it usually goes wrong. Filter by the artifact's type, the kind of engagement that calls for it, the stack or industry it is drawn against, or the audience it is written for.
