RIS Norms

This repository contains a web app supporting the Federal Documentation of Statutes (DE: "Normendokumentation") in their task of keeping the documentation of federal norms up-to-date through amendments (DE: "Fortschreibung").

The name "RIS Norms" refers to

• "RIS", which is the German acronym for "Information system on the law" (DE: "Rechtsinformationssystem")
• "Norms", which makes explicit that within RIS, we're explicitly dealing with federal laws and similar documents (and not, for example, with court verdicts)

Structure of the Repository

This is a mono-repository containing

• ./frontend - The main browser-based entry point for users of RIS-norms
• ./backend - The backend service
• ./ldml-extension - Extensions to the LDML.de schema

Each of the above has its own README.md with more details on that component.

Additional Documentation

There are two places where documentation can be found:

• This projects's ./doc folder, most notably containing information on
  • the domain model
  • the API specification and
  • our Architecture Decision Records (ADR)
• The general RIS Documentation, especially
  • the architecture diagrams
  • the backend JavaDocs
