What stealth is

Stealth is the product line of Stealth Scale B.V.: a platform on which a business product is a document rather than a build. One generic host loads the plugins the document names, each plugin a capability with a web part, a backend and a contract, and everything a person sees is drawn with one design system in the language of the person reading it.

Three names carry it, and each one is used for exactly one thing:

Name	Used for
stealth-scale	The GitHub organisation, the repository field of every manifest, and the Pages host
@stealthscale	The npm scope, and the directory the repositories are checked out under
stealth	The product line itself: the command-line tool, the export condition, the word in prose

What Stealth Scale publishes, from four repositories, is described in The repositories. In short: the toolchain that builds, checks, tests and releases a stealth repository; the design system a screen is drawn with, and the catalogue that documents it; the platform a plugin is written against, with the host, the services and the standard plugins; and, privately, one repository per product.

Today the design system and the platform are still one private repository, and they move out of it tree by tree. The toolchain and this documentation are the first two repositories to stand on their own.

What a reader here can expect

• A rule that every repository follows is written once, in Reference, and a test in the repository enforces it. A convention no test checks says so where it is written.
• A design is proposed in an RFC, with the alternatives it lost to; a decision is recorded in an ADR; the order of work is a roadmap. Each is a numbered file that is never renumbered.
• A package published under @stealthscale has one page in its catalogue per component or module, generated from the source, and a how-to here for what an app does around it.
