Reference
Reference material is information-oriented: technical descriptions of LDE’s machinery, for looking things up.
- Packages – all
@lde/*packages, grouped by lifecycle phase. - Decisions (in the sidebar) – the architecture decision records, documenting each significant design choice and its rationale.
Each package has its own reference page documenting its API and options in detail; the packages page links to all of them. All exported APIs additionally carry JSDoc, so your editor shows inline documentation as you use them.
