KEY TAKEAWAYS
First challenge: Needed to map the project and define MSI, dive into the code and connect the merchant's needs with what Magento could offer.
Second challenge: MSI wasn't in use in a lot of cases, so information was hard to find on stack exchanges and in community forums.
"Regardless of what feature we are working, we have to see that the particular change should not break Magento or Magento functionality when we upgrade or make other changes".
Get information and user flows, understand the Magento code, and use your tools. Understand all of the locations where the functionality is present - sometimes you can adjust the same function in multiple places.
One of the most overlooked tools is the code itself - rehearsing what is happening and where it is happening.
Perspective: "I want to learn as I work"
Being embarrassed while reviewing your code from six months ago is GOOD and it means you're growing.
Concept: the importance of community and always thinking like a junior developer.
Gaining awareness is the starting point (credit to Ben Marks).
