Delivery order
Scaffold the smallest runnable application and document its commands.
done whenThe project starts from a documented command in a clean checkout.
Implement the primary data model and core workflow.
done whenThe main object can be created, read and changed end to end.
Add validation, safe failure states, and persistence.
done whenBad input is refused with a readable message and nothing is left corrupted.
Cover the critical path with automated tests.
done whenThe highest-risk behavior fails the suite when it breaks.
Exercise a clean install from the README and fix every missing step.
done whenA fresh clone reaches the first successful workflow using only the README.
That is the whole plan for Bitly. What it deliberately does not cover is below · check the gaps before you call it a replacement.
- links that outlive your own infrastructure · a domain you stop renewing takes every link with it
- bit.ly's recognition in the link itself, which cuts both ways now that shorteners get spam-filtered
- bundled QR code management, landing pages, and campaign grouping
- city-level and device-level analytics rollups without building them
- an SLA and someone to call
