Adjustments based on feedback

It was, first of all, a great learning experience. The only way to truly learn stuff is by doing and I did, indeed, learn a lot.

Apart from technologies that I learned, like GraphQL, Next.js and VPS maintenance and CI/CD, I learned how productive you can be when you're working alone and you don't have to align stuff with everybody. On the dark side of "working alone", though, one particular thing that stroke me was how people thought my product was unintuitive, even though I was building for developers, like myself ,to solve a problem that I, myself, had for years. My take away was: Yes, if you have years of experience, building alone is fast, really fast. But make sure you have constant user feedback even if you're solving a problem you consider yourself an expert.

No matter how familiar you are with the problems you're solving. You need a fair amount of feedback to get it right.
