Experienced Engineer Building Production Web Apps

I have 7 years of experience building and maintaining production web applications across startups and established teams. I currently work on DrillDown, a collaborative diagramming platform, where I focus on complex frontend architecture, real-time state, and long-lived codebases.

Perfection Is the Enemy of Shipping

As I finish evolving DrillDown from an early prototype into a more production-ready application, I realized I used perfection as a way to avoid the risk of shipping. This article serves as a lesson learned and offers a few takeaways for building your own project.
