Cross-repository changes
- Create a single issue in
firestarter_prom. - Reference that issue from each implementation PR.

Repository philosophy
The Firestarter project separates planning from implementation.
firestarter_promis the project hub.firestarter_appcontains the application.firestartercontains the firmware.
This structure provides one backlog, one roadmap, one place for users to report issues, independent implementation repositories, and easier release coordination.

Following up here with the configured end state this issue's text became the source for.
Delivered. The repository-structure and contribution guidance this issue originally described has been relocated to the wiki
Contributingpage: https://github.com/henols/firestarter_prom/wiki/Contributing. The end state it now describes, and that is actually configured across all three repositories:firestarter_prom— withfirestarterandfirestarter_appboth having Issues disabled.firestarter_prom.mainis protected in all three repositories, so contributions arrive by pull request rather than direct push.Nothing was declined against this issue — the guidance it asked for is fully relocated and current.
Where the surviving tracker is. It is this issue itself. Per the original intent recorded when this repository's issue tracking was centralized, gh#9 stays open as the pinned orientation issue for anyone who lands here first — the natural place to point a first-time visitor before they find the wiki on their own.
