Week Nine was all about setting the stage. As previewed last week, I started integrating the AI assistant into the Twintag admin portal. While the initial steps were smooth, some backend functionality still needed to be brought up to speed to support the full vision. Rather than twiddling my thumbs, I took the opportunity to double down on some housekeeping and support tasks. Tying Up Loose Ends I made sure all of my older tasks were pushed cleanly to production, squashing remaining bugs and doing quality checks. It felt good to see the earlier work being finalized and running live. Lending a Hand I also spent time helping out Ramazan, my teammate, with parts of his codebase—collaboration that’s always energizing. There’s something rewarding about stepping into someone else’s problem space and being able to offer clarity or support. Looking Ahead The backend should be fully prepped by next week, unlocking more in-depth assistant development. I’ve got ideas queued up, and I’m excited to dive back into more complex problem-solving once everything’s aligned. Sometimes progress isn’t about dramatic leaps—it’s about keeping things tidy and ready for the next big push.
