      <description><![CDATA[Day seven was the day the project stopped being a folder on a hard drive and started being something you could find on the internet. Domain, infrastructure, logo, two full deployment specs, and a Railway workspace — all in one sitting.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Day five had left the engine standing in the right shape and stone deaf.

      <description><![CDATA[With the project newly underway, the obvious move was to start building. Instead I spent the whole day writing the rules the building would have to obey — a constitution, a single source of truth, and the bones of the documentation system that runs the whole operation.]]></description>
