### Architecture Documentation
```markdown
# System Architecture
## Overview
This system follows a microservices architecture...
## Components
### API Gateway
- Routes requests to appropriate services
- Handles authentication
- Rate limiting
### User Service
- User CRUD operations
- Authentication
- Profile management
### Order Service
- Order processing
- Inventory management
- Payment integration
## Data Flow
\`\`\`
Client → API Gateway → [Auth] → Service → Database
↓
Cache
\`\`\`
## Technology Stack
- **Backend**: Node.js + TypeScript
- **Database**: PostgreSQL
- **Cache**: Redis
- **Queue**: RabbitMQ
```
## Writing Guidelines
1. **Clarity**: Use simple, direct language
2. **Examples**: Include code examples
3. **Structure**: Use headings and lists
4. **Completeness**: Cover all public APIs
5. **Maintenance**: Keep docs in sync with code
