Design Process

Designs are worked out in the open, in each product's repo (see the design policy):

RFCs (Requests for Comment) plan major changes before they're built. They start as drafts, then go to review, get built and are closed.
A roadmap summarises what's expected next, large and small, including ideas that don't have an RFC yet.
Design principles set out the scope of larger products, such as what belongs in Home Assistant or SignalK rather than here.

See RFCs past draft, open and recently closed, across all products. To comment on a design, use the product's GitHub discussions, or an issue where discussions aren't switched on.
