ADRs

ADR, short for "Architecture Decision Record" is a way of capturing important architectural decisions, along with their context and consequences.

This folder includes ADRs for the setup-java action. ADRs are proposed in the form of a pull request, and they commonly follow this format:

  • Title: short present tense imperative phrase, less than 50 characters, like a git commit message.

  • Status: proposed, accepted, rejected, deprecated, superseded, etc.

  • Context: what is the issue that we're seeing that is motivating this decision or change.

  • Decision: what is the change that we're actually proposing or doing.

  • Consequences: what becomes easier or more difficult to do because of this change.


  • More information about ADRs can be found here.
