The daily build loop that finishes projects

Projects die in the middle, not the start. Survive the middle with a loop that always leaves the app working.

• Pick the smallest next thing that moves the screen forward (a button, a saved field).
• Build it until it works end-to-end — ugly is fine, broken is not.
• Ship it: commit and deploy. A live URL that's 30% done beats a local app that's 80% done.
• Stop while you know the next step. (This is the trick — finishing a sentence is easier than starting one.)

'Stop while you know the next step' is Hemingway's mid-sentence trick for code. You remove the cold-start friction that kills evening motivation.
