Summary

The author reflects on their past experiences with hackathons and the emphasis on rapid software development, which often neglected the importance of maintenance. This realization drew them to Felt, a platform focused on maps that aids decision-making by providing current information with contextual insights. Felt supports multidisciplinary collaboration by allowing teams to easily share and integrate information about various components and their interactions. The platform inherently values sustainability and resiliency, achieved through a maintenance-oriented approach, which aligns with the author's evolved understanding of the importance of maintaining software systems.
