About the Validated Patterns Archived tier
A pattern in the archived tier is no longer under active development. Validated Patterns maintainers move a pattern to this tier when the pattern’s source repository has been archived on GitHub. Archived patterns remain documented for reference, but avoid using them for new deployments.
The archived tier is a terminal state. Patterns do not move from archived back to sandbox, tested, or maintained. |
Moving a pattern to the archived tier
Only Validated Patterns maintainers decide when a pattern moves to the archived tier. A pattern does not move to archived automatically.
Typical conditions before archiving include:
The pattern repository has been archived on GitHub.
No further development or maintenance is planned.
After a pattern is archived:
The pattern page and related documentation remain available.
Pattern cards use a desaturated style, and an Archived banner appears on the pattern documentation pages.
The Install resource link on the pattern page is disabled.
The pattern is hidden from the default patterns catalog view until you select the Archived filter.
The pattern is not included in the homepage tier accordion.
