Building Inertia Planner wasn't a straight line. Throughout every phase, there were:
New features often broke existing functionality, requiring extensive debugging and refactoring
User preferences and settings were added throughout development as we discovered what needed to be customizable
Adding new features required updating existing ones, creating cascading changes throughout the app
Features were built, tested, rebuilt, and refined based on real-world usage and feedback
