+# Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)
+
+Architecture Wiki: [https://wiki.byting-pandas.ninja/en/Projects/LUNA-Charts/Introduction]
+
+## Purpose
+
+This directory contains the **Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)** for the LUNA Charts project.
+
+An Architecture Decision Record documents a significant architectural decision, the context in which it was made, the chosen solution, and its consequences.
+
+The goal is to preserve the reasoning behind architectural decisions so that future contributors and maintainers understand **why** a decision was made—not only **what** was implemented.
+
+ADRs complement the Architecture Development Method (ADM) documentation and serve as the primary record of architectural decisions throughout the project's lifecycle.
+
+---
+
+## Architecture Documentation
+
+The complete software architecture of LUNA Charts is documented in the official Architecture Wiki.
+
+The wiki follows the **TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM)** and describes the project from the initial vision through implementation governance and long-term architecture evolution.
+
+### Architecture Wiki
+
+* Architecture Vision (Phase A)
+* Business Architecture (Phase B)
+* Information Systems Architecture (Phase C)
+* Technology Architecture (Phase D)
+* Opportunities & Solutions (Phase E)
+* Migration Planning (Phase F)
+* Implementation Governance (Phase G)
+* Architecture Change Management (Phase H)
+
+The ADRs contained in this directory should always be read together with the Architecture Wiki.
+
+The wiki describes the architecture as a whole, whereas ADRs explain the reasoning behind individual architectural decisions.
+
+---
+
+## Relationship to the Architecture Documentation
+
+| Architecture Wiki                            | Architecture Decision Records                       |
+| -------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| Describes the complete software architecture | Documents individual architectural decisions        |
+| Defines the overall system structure         | Explains why a specific solution was selected       |
+| Organized according to TOGAF ADM phases      | Organized chronologically by architectural decision |
+| Updated when the architecture evolves        | Added whenever a significant decision is made       |
+
+ADRs do **not** replace the Architecture Wiki.
+
+Likewise, the Architecture Wiki should not duplicate ADRs.
+
+Instead, both artifacts complement each other.
+
+---
+
+## When to Create an ADR
+
+An ADR should be created whenever a decision has a significant impact on the architecture of the project.
+
+Typical examples include:
+
+* Selecting a new technology
+* Introducing or replacing an architectural pattern
+* Changing the public API
+* Introducing a new rendering strategy
+* Changing accessibility principles
+* Modifying the repository structure
+* Changing release or governance processes
+
+Small implementation details, bug fixes, refactorings, or coding style decisions do **not** require an ADR.
+
+---
+
+## ADR Lifecycle
+
+Every ADR has one of the following statuses:
+
+| Status     | Description                                             |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Proposed   | The decision is under discussion.                       |
+| Accepted   | The decision has been approved and adopted.             |
+| Deprecated | The decision is no longer recommended but still exists. |
+| Superseded | The decision has been replaced by another ADR.          |
+| Discarded  | The proposal was rejected.                              |
+
+Only **Accepted** ADRs represent the current architecture.
+
+---
+
+## ADR Structure
+
+Each ADR follows the same structure.
+
+```text
+Title
+
+Status
+
+Context
+
+Decision Drivers
+
+Considered Alternatives
+
+Decision
+
+Rationale
+
+Consequences
+    Positive
+    Negative
+
+Related TOGAF Phases
+
+References
+```
+
+This structure ensures that every ADR answers the following questions:
+
+* **What** decision was made?
+* **Why** was the decision necessary?
+* **When** was it made?
+* **Who** approved the decision?
+* **What** are the expected consequences?
+
+---
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+ADRs use sequential numbering.
+
+Examples:
+
+```text
+0001-repository-structure.md
+0002-technology-stack.md
+0003-svg-rendering.md
+```
+
+The number is never reused.
+
+If an ADR becomes obsolete, its status changes instead of deleting the document.
+
+---
+
+## Decision Process
+
+Architectural decisions follow the governance model defined in **Implementation Governance (Phase G)**.
+
+```text
+Proposal
+        ↓
+Architecture Discussion
+        ↓
+Architecture Review
+        ↓
+Maintainer Decision
+        ↓
+ADR Update
+        ↓
+Implementation
+```
+
+Community members are encouraged to participate in discussions.
+
+Final architectural decisions are made by the project maintainers.
+
+---
+
+## Relationship to Source Code
+
+Source code is expected to reflect accepted ADRs.
+
+If an implementation no longer follows an accepted ADR, one of the following actions should occur:
+
+* Update the implementation to match the ADR.
+* Replace the ADR with a new architectural decision.
+* Deprecate or supersede the ADR.
+
+Architectural changes should always be documented before or together with the implementation.
