Challenges and Learnings

The greatest challenge of the project was developing and integrating multiple complex modules in a short timeframe, which required rigorous organization and continuous effort.

Despite its initial success, the project was discontinued due to a lack of scalability prospects and the identification of critical flaws in the development process. These challenges were instrumental in my growth as a developer, teaching me the importance of structured processes and deeper analysis in the planning and execution of future projects.
