TL;DR: Milestone 1 is complete, Proof-of-Fun is locked, and the project is ready for real puzzle logic.

Project page: /projects/plumafill/

Context

Milestone 1 focused on interaction, not correctness. The goal was to validate that the puzzle felt playable and understandable before introducing data models or validation rules.

Yesterday closed that loop.

What changed

  • Added a Clear / Reset action to fully wipe the grid and feedback state
  • Confirmed keyboard navigation and input constraints behave consistently
  • Closed Milestone 1 after Proof-of-Fun criteria were met
  • Normalized blog structure and publishing flow for ongoing development notes

What I learned

  • Reset behavior is a first-class interaction, not a convenience
  • Finishing a milestone cleanly makes the next one easier to reason about
  • Writing while context is fresh prevents narrative drift later

Next

  • Start Milestone 2
  • Introduce a real puzzle data model
  • Shift focus from interaction to correctness
