Understand the service. Follow the sources.
Plain is building tools for engineering knowledge: what a service does, who owns it, what it depends on and how to work with it.
First comes Service Knowledge Kit, focused on one engineer learning and running one backend service locally.
The product direction
Four independent solutions
SK is the first development focus. Blueprint, Requirements and Maintenance are planned separately; none is intended to require buying the whole family.
KBPlanned
Knowledge Base Blueprint
A proposed structure for existing knowledge: a source catalog, ownership, gaps and rules for review and updates.
Explore KBRQPlanned
