> Developers should create a Google Design Document (a fairly minimal, but structured design doc), explaining the project, what goals it hopes to achieve, and explains why it can’t be done in other ways.

Does somebody have more on this? I'm never sure how to structure my design documents, how does a Google Design Document look like, is there a template somewhere on how to write one? This would be super helpful, please.

Golang has some examples of good design documents:

Chromium project has a template and a lot of docs you can use as examples. They can be found here:
