When the architecture call is mine and the tradeoffs are hard

The team is waiting on me to pick the architecture, and I keep turning it over. Go fast now and I might box us in later; build for scale and we might waste months on something we never need. I can make the call now, but living with the tradeoffs is the part that keeps me up.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You can make the architecture call but weighing speed against future flexibility is hard.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
