Common Questions

Q: Do I have to implement everything? A: No. Start with Phase 1 (security & logging). Other phases are improvements.

Q: Can I run old and new code together? A: Yes! You can gradually refactor endpoints while others still work.

Q: How long will this take? A: Phase 1 (1-2 days), Phase 2 (2-3 days), Phases 3-4 (1-2 weeks).

Q: Will this break existing clients? A: No. API endpoints stay the same; only internal implementation changes.

Q: What's the minimum I should do? A: Authentication + Logging + Error handling. These fix 80% of issues.
