Where this is heading
A board for problems that get built
One day, this board will follow real problems from “someone described it” to “someone built it”, or “it stalled”, with what each step cost and what was learned. This page is only a preview of that.
Problem
Described, not yet looked into.
- Demo
Meeting notes never reach the people who needed them
Where every card starts: a problem someone described, not yet looked into.
- Demo
A recipe can’t be scaled for three people
Waiting for a first analysis: does something already do this?
- Demo
Idea
A possible fix has been sketched.
- Demo
A checklist that follows you between devices
A possible fix has been sketched. Nobody has started building it.
- Demo
A reminder for library due dates
The idea has been checked against what already exists.
- Demo
Building
Someone is working on it.
- Demo
A small tool that renames files in bulk
Someone has taken it on. In a real board, progress would show here.
- Real — this site
This site: Will You Build It?
A form for sending problems, published analyses, and this preview board. The real board comes later.
- Demo
Done
Finished, with what it took.
- Demo
A bookmarklet that fixes one annoying page
Finished and written up: what worked, what didn’t, and what it took.
- Demo
Stalled
Stopped, with the reason.
- Demo
An app that needs data nobody will share
Stopped, and the reason stays visible. Stalling is a legitimate outcome.
- Demo
What’s not here yet
- Real projects. Every card marked “Demo” is invented to show the idea.
- Taking a card, or building together.
- Real progress, stages and costs. Those come later, and only for things that actually happened.
