Hi Torean, You are basically where I was before I started. My day job is not working on my Polymer app (although my hope is for it to be some day). Not being able to get the time in on it full time makes it harder with the migration. If your site isn't fully completed, than I would probably make the leap and go through the migration now for sure. Continuing down the path of completing your site with v0.5 is only going to give you more pain later. Just keep in mind that it's going to take you some time. I was hoping it would be a week or two of part time work, but it's been much more than that. I clearly didn't set correct expectations for myself.
Good luck on the migration Torean! - Bob On Tue, Jul 28, 2015 at 9:20 AM Torean Joel <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Bob, > > Thanks for your input as well, The main reason for asking was because I > started building a data managing application for companies to manage paper > work and would work well with medical companies or smaller companies that > want to keep things organised and also have features like mailing to users > and signing work and tracking progress and the whole import and export > thing and it got bigger than I expected while building (I did everything on > my own) - and because of work I had to put it on hold.
