That's why I find any effort to create specifications... cute. In brownfield software, more often than not, the code _is_ the specification.
replyBut if you start from the beginning with a code base that is always only generated from a spec, presumably as the tools improve you'd be able to grow to a big industrial-grade app that is 100% based on a spec.
replyThe question is how many giant apps out there have yet to be even started vs. how many brownfield apps out there that will outlive all of us.
This might be the "Steve, Don't Eat It!" version of the xkcd workflow comic.
replyWhatever you ship, steve will eat, and some steves will develop an addiction.
