Design Decisions
- →Chose the simplest architecture that solved the problem without over-engineering.
- →Prioritized developer experience and maintainability over premature optimization.
- →Security was considered at every layer authentication, authorization, and input validation.
Deployment
Deployed to a cloud environment with environment-specific configuration. All secrets managed via environment variables, never committed to source control.
Lessons Learned
Every project teaches something new. The most valuable lessons came from debugging production issues they reveal assumptions that seemed safe in development but break under real conditions.
