Just Ship Code

Thu 10th Jul 2025
The mantra *just ship code* emphasizes action over perfection in development. This approach encourages: - Focus on delivering functional solutions - Reduce analysis paralysis - Iterate based on real feedback Building in public means releasing early and often. While quality matters, waiting for perfection can prevent progress. Start small, ship frequently, and improve continuously. Remember: Done is better than perfect.
