One paragraph explanation of the feature.
Why are we doing this? What use cases does it support? What is the expected outcome?
This is the bulk of the RFC.
Explain the design in enough detail for somebody familiar with the framework to understand, and for somebody familiar with the implementation to implement. This should get into specifics and corner-cases, and include examples of how the feature is used. Any new terminology should be defined here.
What names and terminology work best for these concepts and why? How is this idea best presented? As a continuation of existing CppMicroServices patterns, or as a wholly new one?
Would the acceptance of this proposal mean the CppMicroServices guides must be re-organized or altered? Does it change how CppMicroServices is taught to new users at any level?
How should this feature be introduced and taught to existing CppMicroServices users?
Why should we not do this? Please consider the impact on teaching CppMicroServices, on the integration of this feature with other existing and planned features, on the impact of the API churn on existing apps, etc.
There are tradeoffs to choosing any path, please attempt to identify them here.
What other designs have been considered? What is the impact of not doing this?
This section could also include prior art, that is, how other frameworks in the same domain have solved this problem.
Optional, but suggested for first drafts. What parts of the design are still TBD?
