#dependencies

Coming from the framework world with its wide streets, I've learned that all the magic and convenience comes with a hidden price tag. Every new version brought extra maintenance, dependency chains, and features I never asked for but had to carry. My move to the web has been a bumpy road - acronyms, frameworks, libraries everywhere. To make sense of it, I decided to document my journey.

Hey everyone I am trying to sort out a cleaner way to manage timelines across different kinds of projects. Some of my work is client facing, some is internal dev work, and some is ongoing content work. Each one has its own deadlines and a different level of priority, and my current setup is starting to fall apart. Excel Gantt charts get messy when predecessors start overlapping. Kanban tools feel great for dev tasks but not so great for long term scheduling.

What is software? "Software" is actually quite a broad term, spanning everything from low-level firmware running on devices; operating systems; command-line tools that only developers use; compiled code that runs on its own; interpreted code that needs some other piece of software - or even an entire other application like a web browser! - to run it. Software takes many, many forms, and is created and executed in many different ways for many different purposes.
