+# Modules
+
+This document aims to document how the engine modules are designed to work
+together.
+
+_This is not a description of the current state of this project, but rather
+where I want it to be._
+
+A module provides some basic functionality to the engine. Since that is
+incredibly broad, we define specific resources and functions to be implemented
+by each module in order to function with daw.
+
+
+## Goals
+
+The design and implementation of the module system aims to provide the
+following features:
+
+1. Hot reloading modules.
+2. Provide a implementation and platform agnostic interface.
+3. Allow implementations to be easily interchangeable.
+
+
+## Types
+
+DAW defines different module types, each type is a definition of a _struct_ that
+a module of that specific type must implement. It usually consists of function
+pointers that are called by the core of the engine. A specific function could be
+the `window_init` function, required by the `Platform` module type.
+
+
+## TODO
+
+This module system is, at this current commit in time, nowhere near the above
+description.
+
+Once all of this is done in code I want to make sure the static compilation
+configuration does not rely on function pointers, but on functions
+themselves. This is probably done through macros.
