A '''software design description''' (akaa.k.a. '''software design document''' or '''SDD''') is a written description of a [[software]] product, that a software designer writes in order to give a [[software development]] team overall guidance to the architecture of the software project. An SDD usually accompanies an architecture diagram with pointers to detailed feature specifications of smaller pieces of the design. Practically, the description is required to coordinate a large team under a single vision, needs to be a stable reference, and outline all parts of the software and how they will work.
