| Gerrit follows a design-driven contribution process for larger/complex features described |
| [here](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/dev-contributing.html#design-driven-contribution-process). |
| |
| This section houses design documents that were written prior to a system refactoring or the |
| introduction of a new feature. |
| The list is sorted by recency and links to individual design documents. Review and vetting of the |
| documents can be found in Gerrit by using the link inside each doc. |
