Description

We should write an ADR (Architectural Decision Record) documenting the overall architecture of the Chart extension, and why we made those choices. This ADR could be a wiki page on mediawiki.org, or a Markdown file in the extension repo.

  • Write an ADR (or multiple smaller ADRs) that documents the architecture of the Chart system, including:
    • The relationship between the extension and the CLI script
    • Why we chose shelling out over other approaches
    • The wikitext syntax and why we chose it (T368350)
    • How and where data is loaded, and why
    • How the graph SVG is delivered to the article (inlined vs loaded from a URL) and why

I didn't make this a subtask of T368335: [Epic] Make and document key blocking decisions for the Charts project because I don't think this blocks starting implementation, but we should do this shortly after building the initial prototype.
