I work as an engineer at the Dutch government. We have hundreds of technical standards that developers should follow when building government software: API design rules, messaging protocols, authentication profiles, accessibility requirements.

When a developer starts building an API, the tool automatically loads the relevant standard. No plugins to write, no code. Just structured knowledge in Markdown.…
