<p>I've recently been writing a new custom module for a Drupal application.</p>
<p>I needed to create a form populated with options from an API endpoint, submitted the form values to another API endpoint and display some results to the user.</p>
<p>I'd architected and planned the steps I was going to need and knew how I was going to approach adding this new functionality.</p>
<p>My first objective was to make it work.</p>
<p>To get all the functionality in place so it was working as soon as possible with minimal distractions.</p>
<p>This meant I would find any issues sooner rather than later and what I'd created could be reviewed and tested by stakeholders, regardless of how it looked.</p>
<p>If needed, it could have been released at this point.</p>
<p>It was working.</p>
<p>Next, I did a second pass to make it good.</p>
<p>I updated the markup and styled it to match the provided designs.</p>
<p>I made small updates to terminology and messaging to ensure the tone of voice was correct and consistent with the rest of the application and various other small tweaks and improvements.</p>
<p>I could do all this knowing the functionality was already working, and I could focus on making it good.</p>
