Now is the time to lay foundations.
I try to apply that maxim to my work in software just as much as the rest of my life. At my day job, I've been turning a specific solution I implemented for my team into a reusable library that will enable other teams to build better, faster.
As I work on a Nostr project, I'm focusing on writing high-quality, well-tested code; and organizing it so that the component parts can be separated out and reused in other projects.
