𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗔 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆

Two months ago, my manager asked for parcel delivery. I said yes. I had no idea how to start.

Week one was hard. I tried to make the customer page perfect. It broke. I deleted it twice. I stopped trying to be perfect. I wrote working code.

Week three was the rider map. I needed a route line. I failed for days. Sunday at 2 a.m., the line appeared. I did not quit.

Week five was real-time tracking. I fixed issues with slow networks and GPS loss. I used color badges for status:

• Green for delivered
• Red for cancelled
• Blue for in transit
• Orange for pending

Weeks six through eight were for the admin panel. A user finally used the app. The tracking worked from start to finish.

I built 11 pages and 3 API services. The lesson is simple. You do not need a full plan to start.

• Write bad code.
• Learn from errors.
• Rewrite it better.

Do not give up.
