I am currently mulling over the medium of the web. Are we taking full advantage of it? What does it mean to contribute to it?

Project: Launch of New Brand
A principal architect from Formidable along with myself were provided as staff augmentation for launching our client’s new brand. The two of us helped launch the new brand on time.
The client designer was ambitious. The project was on a tight deadline, however, which meant the ambitious animations, fun carousel transitions, and delightful interactions were the first to get cut under such a short timeline. I will never forget the designer telling me what was possible and feeling thankful they remained steadfast as I pushed their design to production. Making a designer’s dream a reality is one of my favorite types of work.
Additionally, I was lucky to experience a commit history where the principal architect and myself pushed alternating commits, unceremoniously, as we worked to complete a single feature together. If you have never weaved in someone else’s commits into your own, I highly encourage it. It’s a lot of fun.
We were so dedicated and hardworking to the project that the Client CTO commended our work to Formidable leadership as well as to us individually.
Feedback I received directly for my contributions to the project:
Project: Miss You, RIP
I grieve the loss of software. I cope by writing love letters to them.
