“So I had this idea… what if I made Jeremy Keith’s process work from wireframe to deployment?” holy moses. wow. hm. I may be taking advantage of these tools in the very near future, fingers crossed.

just something to keep in mind as I sit at this plateau. (also, it’s very similar to falling back into depression.)
