architecture-glossary

Ubiquitous language is a shared vocabulary across architecture, code, and UI that reduces ambiguity. You need a glossary to align domain terminology, ensuring consistent design, development, and governance across teams.

To organize domain terminology, define glossary entries with precise definitions and cross-reference related terms and ADRs. Standardize placement within architecture documentation, aligning with arc42 section 12 for consistency.

Yes, a glossary supports onboarding and architecture reviews by providing a searchable terminology reference. It ensures new team members and reviewers have consistent definitions, cross-references, and related concepts readily available.

The best way to align domain terms with ADRs and arc42 is to enforce a standardized glossary format within section 12. Cross-reference terminology entries directly with ADRs to resolve ambiguity and maintain consistency across documentation.

You should create terminology ADRs when domain concepts lack precise definitions or when terms conflict across architecture, code, and UI. Cross-reference these ADRs with glossary entries to enforce consistent ubiquitous language.

Yes, the architecture-glossary format supports cross-referencing related terms, ADRs, and domain concepts. It enforces a structured format and placement in docs, ensuring consistent terminology alignment across architecture, code, and UI layers.
