We’ve been working on an admin tool in the background to be able to control the data so that I don’t have to rely on the developers to have to make manual changes. I’m on a clean-up spree now to remove testing data from the app.

I am going to constantly refer to the MVP and how this has helped me create an application. Yes, it’s not very good yet. Yes, it’s a bit rough around the edges. Yes, it needs a lot before it could ever be successful. But it exists. It is mine. I can show people. I can demo an idea and I am in active development of a live app. I’m not doing this for the sake of behaving and pretending to be some kind of entrepreneur. If you want to be good at a thing; if you really want to learn, you have to step outside of your comfort zone and get to doing the thing you want to do. Designing, working on and having Pewter developed is giving me skillsets I didn’t have before and it’s the one thing I’d advise anyone ever, when they’re interested in something. Get involved. Start tomorrow. Take that course! Invest in a body of work! Buy that 3D printer! Wax that surfboard!

I’m learning about the stacks, about what is needed to be basically functional for an app to have a workflow as imagined, how to navigate Android and Apple app onboarding, how to design and test properly earlier on. Maybe I’ll learn how to do it all wrong, but that’s still education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But back to the point. It’s time to focus on the family and put efforts into really enjoying some time together after a very busy year.

Plans for the future are to work on the interaction on Jobs between Customer and Engineers and then getting out there and marketing the app because there’s nobody using the app yet, so I need to build it up now at grass roots level. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
