I spent most of today reworking the core logic of @TheMugshotBot and really enjoyed it! This is super exciting because it opens up a lot of new opportunities for upcoming themes and customizations. And ironed out a bunch of bugs.
A big help was commenting out the entire model and TDDing the bulk of the logic. I missed a few things on the first pass, but was able to backfill a feature or two and then wrap it in tests.
I'm all for this "TDDish" approach I've developed over the past few years!

Deep in the weeds...
The code had a bunch of features slapped on here and there. Taking the time document the entire flow (on paper!) and then reimplementing helped consolidate a lot of logic and missed edge cases.
All the more reason to dedicate time to refactoring!

I'm planning on adding some smarter page caching this week before I launch, so don't expect any changes live on the site just yet. But let me know if you'd like to help beta test!
