5 Specification Framework

This page gives an overview about the requirements and principles for a GovStack compliant specification. If a new specification is created, it must follow the framework listed here.

This document is intended to provide guidance for implementing teams of governments and developer teams of software providers who want to adhere to GovStack's technical best practices. It provides guidelines and principles that should be considered by all building blocks and cross-functional requirements that must be considered for any GovStack-based project.

This will accelerate the collaborative development of best-of-breed digital government services and Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), enhancing efficiency and transparency across the world - especially in low-resource settings.
