MVP does not mean disposable

How to move fast without creating an architecture you immediately regret.

Start with the decision

Good technology work begins by identifying the decision the system must support, the person making it and the information they need. Feature lists are useful only after this context is clear.

Reduce ambiguity early

Document users, permissions, workflows, data ownership, integrations, success criteria and known constraints. This prevents expensive assumptions from becoming architecture.

Build for evidence

Release working increments, observe how they are used and refine based on evidence. The objective is not maximum scope—it is a dependable system that produces meaningful outcomes.
