platform-conventions

To document Qlik platform conventions for a brownfield project, use structured templates to inventory subroutines, naming maps, connection standards, and QVD storage patterns. This produces a Platform Context Document to guide subsequent development phases.

A Platform Context Document in Qlik development serves as a decision record for reconciling existing platform conventions with framework defaults. It standardizes organizational coding standards across inputs and libraries to ensure team-wide consistency.

Standardize QVD storage and naming conventions by mapping existing patterns into structured documentation templates. This captures subroutine catalogs and data connection standards, enabling consistent adoption across all Qlik apps.

These documentation templates target brownfield Qlik environments to capture pre-existing platform patterns. Greenfield deployments lack existing conventions to inventory, making this context ingestion unnecessary for initial framework setup.

Capture platform conventions during Phase 0 context ingestion before Phase 4 script development. This ensures platform compatibility by inventorying resources and applying shared subroutine standards before writing new scripts.

The best way to reconcile framework defaults with existing Qlik coding standards is to generate a Platform Context Document. This inventory of existing resources enables informed reconciliation between platform conventions and framework defaults.
