In each ADR file, write these sections:
-

-
Status: proposed, accepted, rejected, deprecated, superseded, etc.
-
Context: what is the issue that we're seeing that is motivating this decision or change.
-
Decision: what is the change that we're actually proposing or doing.
-
Consequences: what becomes easier or more difficult to do because of this change.
