Relative numbering renumbers the whole gutter on every j/k, a tall partial refresh per cursor move that eats the e-ink ghosting budget for no proportionate gain. Gutter is now absolute-only; Spike 13 downgrades from a genuine e-ink risk to a layout decision.

The design record for Typoena — the decisions, specs, and bench write-ups behind the writing appliance. Start with the ADRs for the load-bearing choices, or the v0.1 specs for what the first release actually does.

Decisions & specs
| Doc | What's in it |
|---|---|
adr.md |
Architecture Decision Records — the load-bearing technical choices and why. |
v0.1-mvp-product.md |
v0.1 product design — boot, type one file, Ctrl-S to save, Ctrl-G to publish. |
v0.1-mvp-technical.md |
v0.1 technical design — single Rust binary on esp-idf-rs, modules, threads, bring-up order. |
roadmap.md |
Version-by-version plan; each release is a usable artifact, not a checkpoint. |
hardware.md |
Part choices for the bench build and the rationale behind them. |
Quality method
| Doc | What's in it |
|---|---|
qfd.md |
Quality Function Deployment — turns user-facing requirements into technical HOWs; §3 is the filled 14 WHATs × 14 HOWs House of Quality. |
quality-house-empty.md |
The House chassis, blank — for re-scoring from scratch. |
Bench work
| Area | What's in it |
|---|---|
spikes.md |
Rendering & UX spikes — display/UX risks proved outside the hardware stack. |
postmortems/ |
Bring-up debugging write-ups: what broke, the root cause, and the decisions that came out of it. |
notes/ |
Longer-form essays on the thinking behind specific choices — e.g. where the ~16 s cold :sync goes. |
tradeoff-curves/ |
Cost-vs-knob curves behind chosen defaults — energy, latency, memory. |
