I'm building my own very custom billing system for @myportal.church. Could I build it directly into the core software itself? Yes. Did I? Nope! It's built as a package so I can use it over and over again in any future crazy project I come up with!

I’ve been working on writing all the software that my business needs to slowly replace paying for generic software that I don’t love. One of the items on my list is project management software. I’ve probably written this 2 or 3 times and I still hate it!
