# RODs - The graveyard of "brilliant" ideas

The collection of RODs written by [@unknwon](https://github.com/unknwon) for researching and describing engineering efforts.

⚠️ Writings in this repository are 100% personal, opinionated, and non-work related. Nothing here is a commitment.

## What is an ROD?

ROD is the acronym of **Read-Only Document**, ROD uses similar format as RFC but unlike RFC which is for requesting for comments, ROD is used more as FYI.

## Content structure

Flat, and each Markdown file contains an ROD, and each ROD is monotonically numbered, like a primary key in your database table.

## Open-source, not open-contribution

_Quote from [benbjohnson/litestream](https://github.com/benbjohnson/litestream#open-source-not-open-contribution):_

> I am grateful for community involvement, bug reports, & feature requests. I do not wish to come off as anything but welcoming, however, I've made the decision to keep this project closed to contributions for my own mental health and long term viability of the project.

With that said, the [Discussions](https://github.com/unknwon/rods/discussions) is open.
