Every now and then I hear people having developed a fully fledged software overnight, or on the weekend only... So far, I did not succeed to do that.
- veltas 2y agoAlmost to a weird extent, this is the only software that most of us will ever be able to write, code that we could write the MVP for in a day. Because anything else is too hard to see to completion. There's something to be said about going for that MVP and then iterating.

- lelandbatey 2y agoHaving done some weekend projects, you get it done in a weekend with usually two approaches: 1. Use "do it all for you tools" that do all the hard parts (e.g. Ruby on Rails+lots of gems, Django+lots of libraries, Drupal/Joomla + plugins, etc) 2. Cut scope to a huge degree (don't have any of those things, no users, just "if you make this request then X data is stored and you get redirected to a view"). This math-oriented pastebin was probably the second.
- coliveira 2y agoYou need to focus on a single feature and relegate other issues either to existing services or for the next iteration.
- nine_k 2y agoNot "fully fledged" but "enough to be useful". After that you start having feedback that can guide gradual improvements.
