Design document
From Species File Help
A design document is a tool used within the context of SFS development. It is largely used as an internal tool for communicating detailed ideas about the formal structure and function of potential changes to the SFS software and website. It is used at various stages in the development process. Initially it can be used to set out proposed ideas and later as a guide of work yet to be done.
