## Reflections

This project was the most challenging and intricate one I've tackled so far. It was tough due to the extensive range of problems that required solving, spanning both depth and breadth. Integrating these diverse solutions in a coherent and adaptable manner posed its own difficulties. Managing the unnecessary bulk and outdated elements resulting from multiple experiments or implementations that needed modification due to unforeseen scenarios was quite a challenge.

While I invested considerable thought in planning the overall design, it was during the actual implementation that many issues surfaced, ones that weren't apparent initially.

I've realized the importance of maintaining modular systems; as the project expanded, the interconnected parts made even minor changes incredibly difficult. Additionally, adhering to rigorous testing practices proved essential for safe refactoring and making alterations.

Despite the challenges, this project was incredibly rewarding, offering a wealth of lessons learned along the way.
