I work at Warp (https://www.warp.dev/) where Zach, the author of the post, is the founder.
One practice we’ve gotten into the habit of is demoing projects at standup as soon as possible. I’ve found this has been useful to force myself to get to an end-to-end version of a project sooner. This is useful not just in derisking the technical implementation but also in getting product feedback sooner. By playing around a live demo earlier, we often find that the product experience needs to be refined in ways we couldn’t validate from Figma mocks alone.
