> I built it initially as a favor

That's a hell of a favor. Is this something you built by yourself or were you part of a larger team?

I guess it's not ENTIRELY a favor since I founded that company but stepped away a few years back and always felt a bit guilty ever since. They certainly weren't expecting me to build it though.

I built it all myself (including the integration with our ordering platform) It was sort of my white whale project that I've always wanted to do but didn't have the chops/time.

The advancements in AI-assisted coding encouraged me to give it a shot though and the results turned out great. It was a heavily supervised vibe-coding project that turned into a production-ready system.
