I stopped coding long before I ever got proficient enough to say I was a “coder”, but have spent enough time struggling with “intro to x” beginner code writing courses to get a hint of what goes on when writing programs. I’m presently going through something similar to the authors situation as I’m migrating my leads into Microsoft Dynamics and learning to make the platform for my use case (real estate brokerage). It’s not “infrastructure” but it’s the foundation for my business I can say that even something as simple as correct implementation of software is not something that should be done at speed, or without serious consideration towards portability. For example, because I’m solo and also working another full time job, my emphasis is on completing the migration ASAP energy though I’m aware of small errors in the database that might bite me later. Also, while I’m comfortable with MS’s record of maintaining enterprise software, it’s slightly suffocating to feel that I will effectively loose my time investment should they decide to abandon Microsoft Dynamics
