Apps don't GET finished without some kind of development approach / philosophy. 'I don't give a shit about maintainability' is a philosophy. It's just a really, really, bad one.
- ajuc 14y agoI think this article is written in a context of programmer doing side project, working alone. In such projects it's often the case, that programmer is more concerned with architecture, code style and cool techniques, than the end result - usability and features of the application. And when code invevitably becomes more messy, despite refactoring, programmer lose interest and leave the project unfinished forever. At least that's how many of my projects ended. In such context "make it work first" is a great advice.
