Scratchpad

Development Scratchpad

This section serves as a structured workspace for capturing development ideas, research findings, and ongoing work. It bridges the gap between informal notes and formal documentation.

Purpose

The scratchpad system provides:

• Immediate idea capture without formal issue overhead
• Research documentation for technical discoveries
• Work-in-progress tracking during development
• Knowledge sharing for future contributors

Organization

Ideas

Future feature concepts, content improvements, and enhancement suggestions.

Research

Technical discoveries, best practices, and learning documentation.

Experiments

Code snippets, proof-of-concepts, and technical explorations.

Performance

Site optimization notes, metrics tracking, and performance insights.

Deployment

Cloudflare Pages configurations, deployment findings, and infrastructure notes.

Integration with Development Workflow

The scratchpad follows our Issue-First Development methodology:

💡 Idea → 📝 Scratchpad → 🎯 Issue → 🔨 Implementation

1. Capture ideas quickly in relevant scratchpad sections
2. Develop and research concepts in scratchpad format
3. Convert to GitHub issues when ready for formal development
4. Reference scratchpad in issues and PRs for context

Contributing to Scratchpad

• Add entries to existing categories as needed
• Use clear headings and dates for organization
• Include context and reasoning for future reference
• Convert mature ideas to GitHub issues using our templates
