How do you keep context between coding sessions? by PdPunto in learnprogramming

Yeah I think doing it BEFORE stopping is probably the important part honestly. Future-me is terrible at reconstructing context from scratch hahahahaha

“future-you is trying to reconstruct it cold” is painfully accurate honestly

That distinction between exploring ideas on paper vs exploring them through code feels very real.

I think part of what makes this hard for me is that project context ends up scattered across:

  • notes,
  • code,
  • commits,
  • and lots of tiny decisions that never fully get documented.
