Write a design doc that covers more or less the below:

Software Product Design Document (SPDD)

  1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose - Explain the purpose of the document, its scope, and the intended audience. 1.2 Scope - Outline the software product's scope, including what is and what is not included in the project.

  1. System Overview

2.1 Product Perspective - Describe the context and origin of the software, its relationship to other projects, and its dependencies. 2.2 Product Functions - Outline the main features and functions of the software. 2.3 User Characteristics - Describe the end-users of the product, their needs, and any assumptions about their expertise. 2.4 Constraints - List any constraints that affect the design of the system, including regulatory, hardware, software, and other considerations.

  1. System Architecture

3.1 High-Level Architecture - Provide a high-level overview of the system architecture, including diagrams. 3.2 System Components - Describe each major system component, its purpose, and how it interacts with other components. 3.3 Data Flow - Explain how data flows through the system, using diagrams to illustrate key processes. 3.4 Deployment Diagram - Provide a deployment diagram showing the physical arrangement of software and hardware components.

  1. Detailed Design

4.1 Module Overview - Detail each module of the system, including its purpose and functionality. 4.2 Module Descriptions -

For each module, provide:

Name
Description
Responsibilities
Interfaces (inputs/outputs)
Dependencies
Constraints

4.3 Data Structures (if applicable) - Describe the main data structures used within the system. 4.4 Algorithms (if applicable) - Outline any key algorithms used, their purpose, and how they work. 4.5 User Interface Design - Provide detailed designs for the user interface, including mockups and wireframes.

  1. External Interfaces

5.1 User Interfaces - Describe the interfaces that the user interacts with. 5.2 Hardware Interfaces - Detail any hardware components and their interfaces with the software. 5.3 Software Interfaces - Describe how the software interacts with other software systems. 5.4 Communication Interfaces - Detail the communication methods and protocols used within the system.

  1. Requirements Traceability

6.1 Mapping to Requirements - Map design elements to the system requirements to ensure all requirements are met.

  1. Design Considerations

7.1 Assumptions and Dependencies - List any assumptions made during the design process and any dependencies that may impact the design. 7.2 Design Decisions - Explain the key design decisions made and the rationale behind them. 7.3 Risks and Mitigations - Identify potential risks in the design and how they will be mitigated. 7.4 Security Considerations - Detail any security considerations and how they are addressed in the design. 7.5 Performance Considerations - Describe any performance requirements and how they are addressed in the design.
