| Concept | Description | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Cryptographic vs Pool Privacy | Why Pedersen > pool mixing | High (M16) |
| Viewing Keys | Compliance layer for institutions | High (M16) |
| Same-Chain Privacy | Privacy without cross-chain settlement | High (M17) |
| Stealth Addresses | EIP-5564 on Solana | Medium |
| Proof Composition | Future multi-system proofs | Low (M19+) |
DO:
- Use MDX for interactive documentation
- Include code examples with syntax highlighting
- Keep navigation structure shallow
- Emphasize SIP's cryptographic advantages
DON'T:
- Duplicate content from SDK JSDoc
- Add custom components without need
- Make claims without technical backing
- Automatic sidebar from file structure
- Built-in search
- Dark/light mode
- i18n ready
When documenting SIP advantages:
- vs Pool Mixing (PrivacyCash): Fixed amounts, correlation attacks, no compliance
- vs MPC (Arcium): Setup assumptions, trust requirements, key management
- Focus on: Any amount hidden, mathematical guarantees, viewing keys for auditors
