+
+An "hero project" 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.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+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.
+
+On those projects, developers will spend their free time to write a
+proof-of-concept, just to prove a point.
+
+And, sometimes, it just proves that they are were wrong.
+
+(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.)
+
+Just to be clear: Sometimes an hero project will fail [because the answer is
+obvious](/books/things-i-learnt/right-tool-obvious). Don't let that make you
+feel down.
