Emscripten Design Documents

This directory contains design documents for emscripten features and major changes/refactors.

We are experimenting with keeping these documents here under source control with the hope that this will increase understandability of the codebase. This has some advantages over doing all our planning in Google Docs or GitHub issues. For example, it allows us to track the history of designs and it allows them to be searchable using standard tools like git grep.

Document Format

Each document in this directory should be a markdown file. At the top of each document should be a Status which can be either Draft, Accepted, Completed.

When a document is marked as Completed it should also be updated such that it is clear the work has been done, and is now in the past. For example, phrases such as "The current behavior" should be replaced with "The previous behavior".
