I was going to make a joke about it being on MySpace but then I realised that wouldn't be quite that long ago, which is a refreshing change from the usual "gee I'm old" fare of remembering what's been around since my teen years 😂

3/3 I have also learnt a lot of new things that are not wheel reinventions, for example PHP traits.
Whether this all goes to hell or not, at least I've gotten a conference talk idea out of it. Trying to think of a better name than "Lessons from reinventing the wheel" 😅

2/3 So far I have:
- Accidentally embraced atomic design (to an extent)
- While writing docs, realised some of the output contradicted my library's own purported principles
- Hacked together my own "template syntax"
- More than once, wondered how far away I am from accidentally reinventing MVC.

100%. One of my favourite things is that the amount of context I can put into an AI chat saves me hours of Googling to piece together a solution. But like what I might initially piece together, AI's first answer might be wrong. It's a remarkable time-saver when you *could* do most of it yourself.
