Hi ,

I just published a new article on Medium that’s pretty personal for me.

After college I worked alongside my dad in a sheet metal shop. He taught me lessons about keeping tools and plans close — and always updating the schematic when reality didn’t match the drawing.

Those lessons have stuck with me, and they’ve shaped how I think about building software today. In the article, I connect them to something I call Context Driven Development (CDD) — and why it matters not just for developers, but also for AI teammates like Copilot.

You can read it here:

I’d love to know what you think — does this idea resonate with your own experience? Just hit reply and let me know.

Thanks for reading,

Jesse

P.S. If you haven’t checked out Imdone lately, this is exactly the problem it’s built to solve: keeping context close to the code. You can learn more at imdone.io.
