Pick a problem you care about
Pick a problem you care about. Pick a problem you care about. We cannot stress this enough.
Why? Because the essence of Moldable Development is about adapting the environment to match the context. If you do not have a deep context, you cannot evaluate what contextual tools do for you. Pick a problem you care about.
What kind of problems? There can be many. Out of the box, you can explore:
- Explore a GraphQL or REST API
- Analyze unknown data
- Discover and model a domain
- Assess an existing system
- Document a system
- Build system specific editors
Read about more examples in the built-in book.
Go beyond the technology
Glamorous Toolkit is an environment that shows how the experience of programming can be, but ultimately it's still just a piece of technology. Moldable Development introduces a new feedback loop that has far reaching consequences, both on the technical and the business level.
