Launched one-click refunds (sounds easy, wasn’t)—debugging battle scars and my biggest lesson inside.
Milestone: Added an instant refund button 🎉
Users can now get their money back in one click—no friction, no fuss. More than a feature: it’s my guarantee, and how I build trust.

Confession:
Spent 20% on specs and code. The other 80%? Stuck in bug hell—logging in/out, wrangling edge cases, teaching Claude to swear.

Lesson learned:
Spec twice, debug once. If I'd doubled upfront planning, I’d have cut most of the pain. When you’re looping late at night… just go to bed.

Big picture:
“Simple” features can mean deep rabbit holes. Caffeine and tiredness both hide the exits.

Why share?
Every bug is a reminder to slow down and recharge. Anyone else spend more time untangling “quick” fixes than building new things?
