A NFR is a short document explaining how a new feature request must work, how it can be implemented, how it can help, allowing the core developers to understand and facilitate its implementation. A NFR contains:
- Suggested syntax
- Suggested class names and methods
- A short documentation
- If the feature is already implemented in other frameworks, a short explanation of how that was implemented and its advantages
In the following cases a new feature request will be rejected:
- The feature makes the framework slow
- The feature doesn't provide any value to the framework
- The NFR is not clear, bad documented, bad explained, etc.
- The NFR doesn't follow the current guidelines/philosophy of the framework
- The NFR affects/breaks applications developed in current/older versions of the framework
- The OP doesn't provide feedback/input when requested
- It's technically impossible to implement
- It's a functionality that only will be used on development/testing stages
- Submitted/proposed classes/components don't follow the Single Responsibility Principle
- Static methods aren't allowed
To send a NFR you don't need to provide Zephir or C code or develop the feature, the NFR is just about explain the goal of the NFR.
All NFRs should be posted as a new issue on Github.
