## Summary Records the decision to render `docs/**/*.md` as a separately-deployed static site using **VitePress + `vitepress-plugin-mermaid`**. This is **ADR-only** — the implementation (install + `.vitepress/config.ts` + `docs/index.md` + Gitea Actions workflow) lands as the next chantier. Splitting them keeps the decision review focused on the *why* before the *how*. ## What lands ### [`docs/decisions/0022-docs-site-vitepress.md`](docs/decisions/0022-docs-site-vitepress.md) Full MADR 4.0.0 ADR. Decision drivers, 4 considered options (VitePress, MkDocs Material, Docusaurus 3, Astro Starlight), site-structure mapping, Mermaid integration, deployment + CI plan, consequences, revisit triggers. Tags: `process`, `infrastructure`. **Key choices captured:** - VitePress wins on toolchain alignment (Vite already in the workspace via `@nx/vite`, `vite-plugin-angular`, Vitest). MkDocs Material was the strong runner-up; the Python runtime tax in Gitea Actions tipped the balance. - `vitepress-plugin-mermaid` for ```` ```mermaid ```` blocks ([ADR-0009](docs/decisions/0009-auth-flow-oidc-pkce-msal-node.md) sequence + [architecture.md](docs/architecture.md) C4 are hard requirements). - Site sources entirely from `docs/`. Mapping: - `docs/index.md` (new, Hero layout) → `/` - `docs/development.md` → `/development` - `docs/architecture.md` → `/architecture` - `docs/decisions/README.md` → `/decisions/` (curated index, kept as section landing) - `docs/decisions/00NN-….md` → auto-listed in the sidebar by numeric prefix - `docs/setup/0N-….md` → `/setup/0N-…` - **Excluded** via `srcExclude`: `docs/README.md` (stays as the git-side / IDE-preview index — option A from the prior discussion) and `docs/decisions/template.md` (authoring scaffold). - Empty placeholder sections in `docs/README.md` (Operations runbooks, Security/perf/a11y rationales) are NOT pre-created as empty pages — they appear in the sidebar when real content lands. - Deployment: dedicated hostname (provisional `docs.portal.apf.fr`) behind the same Caddy reverse-proxy as the apps, fed by a new `.gitea/workflows/docs-site.yml` triggered on `docs/**` push. Exact hostname follows the future infrastructure ADR; not locked here. ### [`docs/decisions/README.md`](docs/decisions/README.md) ADR-0022 added to the index table. ### [`CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md) Bumps the ADR range from `0001 → 0021` to `0001 → 0022`. New bullet in the "Architecture (recorded in ADRs)" section describing the docs-site choice in one paragraph. Implementation tracked in "Still on the roadmap" until the next PR lands it. ## Notes for the reviewer - **Why ADR before implementation?** The choice between VitePress / MkDocs Material / Docusaurus / Astro Starlight is exactly the "stable + recognized + innovative" trade-off [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md) asks to document. Reviewing the rationale on its own (without dragging through the install diff) keeps the discussion focused. - **Why not surface ADRs inside `portal-admin`?** Audience mismatch — [ADR-0020](docs/decisions/0020-portal-admin-app.md) §"Audience is disjoint" frames `portal-admin` around APF internal operators (CMS, audit, user directory), not architects. The full reasoning is in ADR-0022 §"Context and Problem Statement". - **Why two index artefacts (`docs/README.md` + future `docs/index.md`)?** Option A from the structure discussion. Each serves a distinct audience: `README.md` is the flat link list that renders well in IDEs / Gitea source view; `index.md` will be the VitePress Hero landing for the web audience. Light duplication, no maintenance pressure (the IDE one only needs updating when sections appear/disappear). - **Why `vitepress-plugin-mermaid` rather than Docusaurus's built-in Mermaid?** The community plugin is a sub-1.0 dependency on the wrapper (Mermaid itself is mature), but Mermaid is so mainstream that switching it out is a half-day rewrite if the plugin stalls. Trading that risk against Docusaurus's MDX-by-default footprint + React runtime is a net win. - **Why `process` + `infrastructure` tags?** Mirrors [ADR-0015](docs/decisions/0015-cicd-gitea-actions.md) (also a CI / deploy decision with content authoring implications) and is consistent with the [tag vocabulary](docs/decisions/README.md#tag-vocabulary). No new tag invented. ## Test plan - [x] `docs/decisions/0022-docs-site-vitepress.md` validates as MADR 4.0.0 (frontmatter, section order). Index in [`docs/decisions/README.md`](docs/decisions/README.md) updated in the same PR per [ADR conventions](docs/decisions/README.md#conventions). - [x] No code touched — `lint / test / build` matrix unaffected. - [ ] Review for trade-off accuracy: did I get MkDocs Material's strengths right? Is Astro Starlight's maturity argument fair? - [ ] Implementation chantier (next PR): `pnpm add -D vitepress vitepress-plugin-mermaid mermaid`, `docs/.vitepress/config.ts`, `docs/index.md`, `.gitea/workflows/docs-site.yml`, `package.json` scripts. Will land within the same week assuming this ADR holds. ## What's next If accepted as-is, the immediate follow-up is: 1. Install VitePress + the Mermaid plugin. 2. Author `docs/.vitepress/config.ts` with the sidebar shape spelled out in this ADR (auto-generated sub-sidebar for `/decisions`, hand-curated top-level). 3. Author `docs/index.md` (Hero layout). 4. Add the `docs-site` Gitea Actions workflow. 5. Wire the dev script (`pnpm docs:dev`) into `package.json` so contributors can preview locally. If reviewers want to push back on the toolchain choice (MkDocs Material in particular has a strong case for the theme polish), this is the right PR to surface that — implementation hasn't started. --------- Co-authored-by: Julien Gautier <julien.gautier@apf.asso.fr> Reviewed-on: #153

# Architectural Decision Records
|
|
|
|
This project records architecturally-significant decisions as **ADRs** in the [MADR 4.0.0](https://github.com/adr/madr) format. References: [adr.github.io](https://adr.github.io/).
|
|
|
|
## Why ADRs
|
|
|
|
ADRs capture the _why_ behind a decision — context, drivers, options considered, trade-offs accepted — at the moment the decision is made. They make architecture reviewable, onboarding faster, and prevent the same debate from being re-litigated later.
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- **Format:** MADR 4.0.0. Start from [template.md](template.md).
|
|
- **Filename:** `NNNN-kebab-case-title.md`, e.g. `0007-adopt-tailwind-for-design-tokens.md`.
|
|
- **Numbering:** globally sequential 4-digit prefix. Numbers never reset, never get reused — even when an ADR is superseded or deprecated.
|
|
- **Layout:** flat folder. ADRs are not nested into category subfolders; topical organization happens via tags.
|
|
- **Tags:** every ADR carries a `tags:` array in the MADR frontmatter, drawn from the [tag vocabulary](#tag-vocabulary) below. An ADR may carry several tags. Propose new tags (or renames) in the same PR that needs them; never invent ad-hoc tags inline.
|
|
- **Status lifecycle:** `proposed` → `accepted` → optionally `deprecated` or `superseded by [ADR-NNNN](NNNN-other.md)`. Update the YAML frontmatter; never delete an ADR.
|
|
- **Index maintenance:** every ADR addition or status change must update the [Index](#index) below in the same commit.
|
|
|
|
## When to write an ADR
|
|
|
|
Write one whenever a development decision is non-trivial: tool or library choice, framework pattern, security control, perf budget, a11y target, naming convention, deprecation, breaking change, or any choice that future contributors would benefit from understanding the _why_ of.
|
|
|
|
## Tag vocabulary
|
|
|
|
The vocabulary below is the source of truth. It is intentionally coarse — propose extensions only when an existing tag genuinely doesn't fit, and avoid overly narrow tags.
|
|
|
|
| Tag | Scope |
|
|
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `frontend` | UI, Angular, components, design system, client-side state |
|
|
| `backend` | API, BFF, server-side services |
|
|
| `security` | AuthN, AuthZ, sessions, CSP, dependency scanning, secret management |
|
|
| `performance` | Perf budgets, caching, bundle size, Lighthouse |
|
|
| `accessibility` | WCAG, a11y testing, keyboard, ARIA, contrast |
|
|
| `infrastructure` | CI/CD, hosting, deployment, runtime |
|
|
| `observability` | Logs, metrics, traces, correlation IDs, monitoring |
|
|
| `data` | Persistence, schemas, migrations, data flow |
|
|
| `process` | Team conventions, workflows, repo policy |
|
|
|
|
> _Status: starter vocabulary, to be refined as ADRs accumulate. Update this table whenever a tag is added, renamed, or retired._
|
|
|
|
