What is PI3D?

Project In 3 Days (PI3D) is a project I started in July of 2018 (1 year ago). The goal was simple:

  • Start a project
  • Finish it within the next three days
  • Take a two or three day break
  • Repeat

Why?

I started PI3D because I had a large number of small ideas that I wanted to try out, but did not want feel the need to continue supporting said projects in the long term.

PI3D quickly became a great learning tool for me, and I rapidly improved my prototyping, research, efficiency, and programming skills. I get many comments from other people I work with about how quickly I take an idea and turn it into a program, a skill which I can confidently attribute to the time spent working on my PI3D projects.

At this point, I would not be surprised if I am more fluent in Python than English.

What's next?

  • Counter

  • other people?

Will I keep doing PI3D?
