Purpose of this Repo

Status

Accepted

Context

When creating some caching utilities in Ecommerce, we wanted the ability to share the utilities across IDAs, without the overhead of creating a unique repository for every cross-cutting concern.

Decision

This repository was created as a home for django utilities that might be useful to OpenEdx.

Note

Some utilities may warrant their own repository. A judgement call needs to be made as to whether code properly belongs here or not. Please review with the Architecture Team if you have any questions.

Consequences

Certain tools that were created in edx-platform(or other IDAs) will be moved to this shared library.
