I'd like to second the mention of plan vs. no plan.

Having no plan is often better when you're facing a deep pit of work, pick at it every now and again, whatever you feel like working on that day.

vs. having a clear Todo list that is longer than a DNA chain and just giving on it after item 5 because 6 is boring.

Oh, and congrats, looks great.



I find it very hard to maintain enthusiasm and momentum on side projects if there is a plan. It just feels like work.


I guess yeah, a full plan would perhaps make it like work. I guess I meant more like an idea of what the goal is. So I could better plan the features.


Ah yeah, at least a set of design goals and non goals.


An anti-plan: things I will never implement.
