My main goal for this project is not getting a finished product running on a server somewhere. The project will functional as a playground for me to experiment, in a safe environment, with new (to me) technologies, methodologies and ways of working.

The byproduct will (hopefully) be a functional game that i can present as a gift to my mother.

I’m well aware that this project, if it ever gets finished, will be used by one, maybe two people at the same time. However i will still attempt to make everything scale as if it would be a lot more popular. This means i will probably work on theoretical problems that i will, in practice, be unlikely to encounter.

This is the part that keeps me interested in the project, and allows me to do more research into topics i would otherwise not encounter. Which is the main reason I’m starting this project

I will also start working on automatic deployment, unit testing approaches, continuous integration, etc even though as stated above, this will be a very small project.
