Architecture

When developing a feature that requires architectural design, or changing the fundamental design of an existing feature, discuss it with a Frontend Architecture Expert.

A Frontend Architect is an expert who makes high-level Frontend design decisions and decides on technical standards, including coding standards and frameworks.

Architectural decisions should be accessible to everyone, so document them in the relevant Merge Request discussion or by updating our documentation when appropriate.

You can find the Frontend Architecture experts on the team page.

Widget Architecture

The Plan stage is refactoring the right sidebar to consist of widgets. They have a specific architecture to be reusable and to expose an interface that can be used by external Vue applications on the page. Learn more about the widget architecture.

Examples

You can find documentation about the desired architecture for a new feature built with Vue.js.
