Scaling personal projects

Here are some quick notes from Ferdie De Oliveria's talk, "Scaling Personal Projects", at PHP South West last week:

Create the project and change the name later. Don't let the project name be a blocker.

Identify key features and functionality. Use a tool like a Trello board to capture and manage tasks.

Ponder on the challenges.

Have a growth mindset.

Divide tasks into heavy work, medium work and quick wins.

Fail fast, fail early.

Refactor.

Iterate.

If people don't like it, make it better.

Consistency is key.

Practice and perseverance.
