Still housekeeping. And a good case for keeping it simple.

More housekeeping this week. I'm still working my way through the pre-beta cleanup list, ticking off the day-to-day functions one by one.

As I was going through it, I picked up a small edge case with one specific transfer type. Without going into the nitty gritty, what it came down to was this: the math formula we'd been using was overcomplicating things, and that was exactly what was tripping up that one scenario.

So it was back to the drawing board. Instead of patching the complicated version, I stepped back and asked whether there was a simpler way to run that particular transfer. Turns out there was. A bit of a detour from the list, but a worthwhile one, and the app is better for it.

Here's the thing about the housekeeping though. It's tedious, there's no getting around that. But it's really valuable, because it's forcing me to test the app in ways I don't think I would have otherwise. Poking at every function, trying the odd scenarios, and seeing where things break. And catching something like this now, before it ever reaches a real user, is exactly the point. Better I find the edge case than they do.

I'm almost halfway through the pre-beta cleanup list now. Tedious as it is, I'm excited to get through it and start getting some real users on board. That's what all of this is building towards.
