Feature: Add a Motion Architecture Decision Records (ADR) Guide #37367

Description

@dnyaneshwari44

Description

EaseMotion CSS provides reusable motion utilities, but there is currently no documentation describing how teams can document motion-related architectural decisions over the lifetime of a project.

As interfaces evolve, teams frequently revisit decisions regarding animation timing, motion consistency, accessibility trade-offs, browser support, and reusable motion patterns. Without structured documentation, these decisions become difficult to understand, review, or maintain.

A dedicated Motion Architecture Decision Records guide would introduce a standardized approach for documenting significant motion-related decisions within projects using EaseMotion CSS.

Why is this valuable?

  • Encourages long-term maintainability.
  • Improves team collaboration.
  • Documents architectural decisions.
  • Reduces repeated design discussions.
  • Expands the documentation collection with engineering guidance.

Proposed Idea

Create a standalone documentation submission including:

  • What Motion ADRs are
  • Decision template
  • Example decision records
  • Review process
  • Best practices

Acceptance Criteria
