Writing the build log while the product is still messy
Documenting a product before it feels finished is uncomfortable, but the notes are more valuable when the edges are still visible.
It is easier to publish after the story has already been cleaned up. The problem is that the real lessons usually happen before the cleanup.
So this site is not meant to read like polished founder mythology. It is meant to capture the build while it is still uneven.
What I want the posts to do
- explain decisions
- leave behind technical breadcrumbs
- make the product legible over time
What I do not want
- fake certainty
- growth-story theater
- screenshots without context
If a post cannot help me remember why a choice was made, it is probably not worth publishing.
