nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
and orientation.

We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.

## Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
community includes:

* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences

For example, it was clear that ideally it should be based on standard Python type hints.

Also, the best approach was to use already existing standards.

So, before even starting to code **FastAPI**, I spent several months studying the specs for OpenAPI, JSON Schema, OAuth2, etc. Understanding their relationship, overlap, and differences.

- Is small, focused, and easy to review—ideally one commit, unless multiple commits better narrate complex work.
- Adheres to MinIO’s coding standards (e.g., Go style, error handling, testing).

PRs must flow smoothly through review to reach production. Large PRs should be split into smaller, manageable ones.

## Submitting PRs

1. **Title and Summary**:

### Just Modern Python { #just-modern-python }

It's all based on standard **Python type** declarations (thanks to Pydantic). No new syntax to learn. Just standard modern Python.

If you need a 2 minute refresher of how to use Python types (even if you don't use FastAPI), check the short tutorial: [Python Types](python-types.md).

You write standard Python with types:

```Python
from datetime import date

size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
orientation.

## Architecture Standards

**Experimental!**

We'd like to capture our architectural decisions about the build tool as [Architectural Decision Records (ADRs)](https://adr.github.io/).
For now we just have this global repository of ADRs.
If we see fit, we can break these out to per-platform ones, or keep a hybrid approach to having global and platform-specific ADSs.

Our aim is to keep the process lightweight and approachable.

3. **Follow** the coding standards: `mvn formatter:format`
4. **Add** comprehensive tests for new functionality
5. **Commit** your changes: `git commit -m 'Add amazing feature'`
6. **Push** to the branch: `git push origin feature/amazing-feature`
7. **Submit** a Pull Request with detailed description

### Code Standards
- Follow the project's Eclipse formatter configuration

## Consequences

* X
* Y
* Z
```

## Consequences

* We start to use Architectural Decision Records
* We use the proposed template from this ADR
* We locate `.md` files in the folder `/architecture/standards`
* We highly encourage usage of ADR to communicate decisions
