Agreed, just went through this after spending a year and a half adding a bunch of cool real-time features to an app of mine that no one asked for.
Still a win because now I’ve “done it before” :)
The app was a failure, because he learned everything he needed to know by writing the app.
There are a lot of software projects that fail in the sense of not being released or used, but valuable from what was learned in the process of developing it.
