What We’re Learning as a Team While Building IT Conect (spoiler: it’s not just about tech)

When we started working on ITConnect, we thought the biggest challenges would be technical:
→ APIs, databases, late-night bugs…

But what we’re learning goes far beyond the code.

💬 Lessons that are shaping us:

  • Not every good idea is clear to the user

  • Team communication = as important as clean code

  • Simple design is surprisingly hard

  • Feedback can sting… but it makes the product real

  • And yes — we’ve seriously considered giving up sometimes

Deadlines slipped. Features broke.
Some feedback wasn’t fun to hear.
But still — we showed up. We kept building. We kept learning.

❤️ What this project is really teaching us:
How to collaborate
How to listen
How to push through
How to grow — not just as coders, but as teammates and future professionals.

– Erzana, Sumea & Isme
