Development reference#

This reference contains the contributor path, the forward plan, the durable cross-module decisions that constrain it, how fast tests and validation studies divide the work, and the strategy used to benchmark statistical methods. It is part of the documentation build but is not the beginner path. Current behavior is determined by code and tests. A roadmap entry becomes a release claim only when its implementation and its evidence gates land.

Start at contributing to set up the project and to choose the checks your change needs. Read pull requests before you open one. Read releases before you change a version or create a tag.
