Given this is my first Hackaday project, I did not fully know what to expect regarding a time commitment from start to finish. With this said, what has surprised me the most is how much work goes into properly documenting all of the production details. From explaining the individual steps involved, to refactoring Python and JavaScript programs.
Originally I had intended to take only two months in order to complete the EnviroPi Temp Monitor project. At the moment I am writing this log entry, it has already been two and a half months, with more documentation and assembly left to do. By the time this endeavor is finalized, I foresee a total of four months of effort going into wrapping it all up.
Despite the coding, refactoring, documenting and publishing taking longer than assumed, I am grateful to be spending the correct amount of time needed in order to ensure a quality outcome. I would like for anyone to be able to follow this project's notes in pursuit of building their own version of an EnviroPi Temp Monitor. It is important to me that I do a high-quality job from the get-go.
