🔥 What to Tell Developer

“We’ve spent enough time outlining the vision and wireframing. I now need to move into action. We’ll skip or minimize further wireframing and begin direct development of the MVP features in Bubble. Let’s stick to a 3-week build cycle. If a design is unclear, ask me directly — we’ll decide fast and keep momentum. Wireframes aren’t the priority. Functioning features are.”
