Thanks for both the links and the advice - this is making more sense. It would be fantastic if someone - maybe you, since you've got a high-level 10,000' view

Thanks for both the links and the advice - this is making more sense. It would be fantastic if someone - maybe you, since you've got a high-level 10,000' view down to the on-the-ground detailed experience - could consolidate this into an article and provide a guide on how to build software as a platform from the get-go. Any chance of that? :)
