Problem

Scenario

You’ve been asked to add a new feature to an existing application that already has active users, established workflows, and technical constraints. The feature needs to solve a real user problem without disrupting current behavior, and you’ll need to work within the realities of the current codebase rather than starting from scratch.

Question

How would you approach designing a new feature for an existing application?
