</span>
<p>An &quot;hero project&quot; is a project/spec change that you personally think will
solve a group of problems in your project. It could be a different
architecture, a new framework or even a new language.</p>
<span id="continue-reading"></span>
<p>Hero projects happen mostly when a single developer wants to prove something
without the support of the company or even the time they are in.</p>
<p>On those projects, developers will spend their free time to write a
proof-of-concept, just to prove a point.</p>
<p>And, sometimes, it just proves that they are were wrong.</p>
<p>(Although that last point sounds a bit sad, if you have to do an hero project,
you'll still learn something new and, maybe, even add a new bullet point to
your CV.)</p>
<p>Just to be clear: Sometimes an hero project will fail <a href="/books/things-i-learnt/right-tool-obvious">because the answer is
obvious</a>. Don't let that make you
feel down.</p>
