drafted my new Research feature in #citybuilding game.

while drawing I already refactored the classes structure two times. so cheap when done inside MS OneNote.

i remember the times when UML was a thing and we even had to supplement implementation with UML diagrams.

not sure why it died. maybe folks cant think in advance or the agile killed it with vague requirements that cannot be crystalized in a structure. as for me, implementations done on paper first are always better than the features done in code first.

sometimes working in @dart_lang i want to 'zoom out' from the current method and class to see larger picture without the method impl details. like how props in class connect to other classes and so on. but nope, only ctrl + click works, basically leaving you at the very bottom...

that's why i follow #gtoolkit and their #moldableenvironment . where you can create your own views for your system/code.

i always had 3/5 points at school for my calligraphy skills. so glad i have to write on a paper once or twice a year
