Day 1 of building ScrapeForge in public

Before writing any production code, I wanted clarity.

Day 1 was spent on three things:

  1. Sharing the build in public intro
  2. Solving one LeetCode problem to stay consistent with DSA
  3. Creating a detailed project brief

The project brief helps me avoid missing important features, reduces the risk of rewrites, and keeps scope creep under control.

There is a quote I strongly believe in:
“Scope creep kills more projects than bad code ever will.”

By the end of the day, I had a complete plan covering build, launch, and marketing.

I am sharing the project brief template for other developers as well.

On to Day 2. 🚀
