I Built an SDK Because I Was Desperate

Description and use

<p>This is not a story about a great idea I had in the shower. It's a story about<br> being hungry, tired, and slightly greedy, and deciding that the fastest path out<br> of that was to build something for a bank.</p> <p>I'm writing it down because most "how I built X" posts skip the embarrassing<br> part. They start with "I noticed a gap in the market" and end with "and then it<br> was a huge success." That's not what happened here. What happened is: I was<br> desperate, I built an SDK, it mostly broke, I fixed it, and then I wrote about<br> it because that's how I process things.</p> <p>Here
