Documents

• Typed documents. Markdown documents of built-in types such as architecture decisions, design documents, runbooks, user manuals and API specifications. Each type comes with a template, and each organization and project chooses the types it uses.
• Summary and language.
  • Every document has a summary, so a reader or an agent can judge it without opening it.
  • Every document has a content language. Built-in templates exist in English and Italian.
• Derived documents. A translation or a client rendition declares its source document. Quasar then shows whether it is aligned with that source, stale or unverifiable.
• Review and acceptance. A document moves from Draft to In review to Accepted, and an acceptance can be revoked.
  • An acceptance binds to the exact revision of the text.
  • A later edit shows as modified since acceptance.
• Export. PDF, Word, HTML or Markdown. Each file states its organization, key, revision and acceptance.
