Your project doesn't need more features. It needs one thing: a clear problem.

I've noticed something while building projects:
It's very easy to keep adding features just because you can.
Authentication ✅
Dark mode ✅
Dashboard ✅
Notifications ✅
Admin panel ✅
Some random AI feature ✅
And then you look at the project and realize:
"Wait... what problem is this actually solving?"
I'm trying to change the way I build projects.
Before writing code, I want to answer 3 questions:

1. Who is this for? If the answer is "everyone," I probably haven't defined the user properly.
2. What specific problem does it solve? Not "it's an AI platform." Something more concrete like: "It helps X do Y without having to Z."
3. Would someone actually use it? Even if the answer is uncertain, thinking about this before coding can prevent spending weeks building something nobody needs. I've also started thinking about projects less as: "What technologies can I put on my resume?" and more as: "What useful thing can I build with those technologies?" Still learning, but I think this mindset makes projects much more interesting. Developers who build side projects: what's one feature you spent way too much time building that turned out not to matter? 👀
