# BEDS — Back End Data System
## Developer Wiki
Welcome to the BEDS developer wiki. This is a living document. It grows with the codebase and should be updated whenever a design decision is made, a pattern is established, or a component is implemented.
If you are reading this as a new contributor, start here and read in order. The origin story is not fluff — it explains *why* BEDS is built the way it is, and understanding the *why* is the difference between extending the framework correctly and breaking it subtly.

## Contributing to This Wiki
- Write for the programmer who inherits this code after a two-week handoff with no knowledge transfer
- Document decisions, not just mechanics — *why* matters more than *what*
- Dated history entries belong in source code comments, not here — the wiki covers concepts, not changelogs
- When you change the system, update the wiki in the same commit
