Recently, I worked on a full‑stack edtech project with multiple dashboards, payment integrations. I poured dedication, we agreed the payment in 4 different phases. but when it came time for payment, the client keep delaying payment and giving words that we will settle before i finish, then lastly ghosted.
Here’s the lesson: your first phase must be upfront payment.
✅ Don’t start a new phase until the previous one is fully paid.
✅ Keep control of your code and deployment until balances are cleared.
✅ Protect your peace, time, and intellectual property.
I didn’t lose a client, I gained clarity. The project now sits safely in my private repo, ready to be rebranded for clients who respect engineering talent.
I'm open for collaboration and oppurtunity as a full stack developer.
