  • > onboarding docs

    yes, they're don't changing frequently

    > system design docs

    yes - see C4-PlantUML[1]

    > meeting notes

    no, unless they're directly code related like ADRs [2,3].

    Although one can abuse Github Issues + comments for this, in my opinion it's better to use modern SaaS tools for this, i.e. Loom, Descript, Linear.app, etc. - you can automate this process, e.g. transcribe the meeting's recording and add the issue/repo using Github Actions.
