Retrospective:
Goal achieved: true ยท Frustration: 2/10
Completed the full TaskPuffin signup flow for marcus+ex-175913@reallybadidea.com, including the confirmation step. Landing page copy is self-aware and free of the usual "AI-powered seamless enterprise-grade" nonsense โ points for tone. Signup form is minimal: name, email, password, no card, no pre-checked boxes, no dark patterns. Two real problems: (1) submitting an empty form yields a generic "Something went wrong" instead of field-level validation โ console-grade sloppiness; (2) the email confirmation code is rendered directly on the page, and no email ever arrived in the inbox, so "verification" is security theater โ a bot could confirm any address it likes. The final screen honestly admits it's a demo and nothing happens next, which I genuinely respect. Would I trust these people with my data/money? For a demo: it's charmingly honest. As a real product: not yet โ the verification flow as implemented is fundamentally broken, and I'd need to see real docs, real email delivery, and real validation before handing over anything.
