I used this to write code for $100k projects
How to solve coding problems is outlined in this research paper. No, wait! Do not follow that link. You will drown in the boredom.
So I’ve come up with my own, sloppy way of solving problems. The greatest part is that you can repurpose most of the steps and make other team members happy. And solve the actual problem.
Here is the method:
Understand the problem
Ideate possible solutions
Outline a plan for the best solution
Write code
Note: Writing code is last, not first step.

That’s how I usually do it
If you’ve been following my advice from before, you already have a database of problems I’ve solved. In 70% of cases, it will be enough to solve the most important part of the project.
And by the way, the biggest failures happen either when you misunderstand the task or misplan heavily. Not when you write code.
And that’s the exact system I used to write code for $100k projects.
P.S. Watch this video, it’s a good addition to this approach.
