Sources

Reference material extracted from specific projects. Study for ideas, don't copy blindly.

These are descriptive — they document what a project does and why. The patterns/ directory is prescriptive — it tells you what to do.

Patterns that prove broadly applicable get promoted from here into patterns/. The rest stays as reference for understanding how mature projects solve specific problems.
