Getting familiar with OpenSpec

| Agile, OpenSpec, SDD, software engineering

Having just learned about OpenSpec, I started using it on this website today. It's been great. The framework appeals to me because it's lightweight and works well in brownfield scenarios. This matters because I haven't previously used SDD for this site, so there are no existing 'spec.md' files for OpenSpec to work with.

I'm interested in learning more about how this scales. It works really well for this small project, but for some of my larger work projects, I don't think just specifying the spec files will cut it; it will likely need more context or steering. Figuring out that piece is the next thing I'm focusing on.
