Project Guidelines
This project provides a comprehensive collection of standardized conventions and architectural patterns designed to maintain consistent code quality, secure workflows, and project stability. It serves as a structured guide for implementing engineering processes, including automated testing, dependency management, and environment configuration across diverse software development lifecycles.
The framework distinguishes itself by offering a unified approach to version control and interface design. It enforces linear development practices through standardized commit messages and branch protection rules to maintain a clean project history. Additionally, it establishes clear standards for building predictable, resource-oriented interfaces that prioritize secure communication, data validation, and consistent endpoint structure.
Beyond these core areas, the guidelines cover a broad range of operational requirements, including automated code quality assurance, accessibility compliance, and database schema documentation. It also provides strategies for managing project dependencies and deployment workflows to ensure consistent application behavior across development, testing, and production environments.
