# ⑥ Improve
I want to improve this project. Review my wiki/ and help me iterate.
## Phase 1: Retrospective
Read the wiki journey:
- idea-Concept.md → Did the result match the vision?
- plan-Success.md → Did we hit all criteria?
- plan-Risks.md → Which risks materialized?
- test-Results.md → What failed? What passed?
## Phase 2: Add Retrospective Page
Create wiki/release-Retrospective.md:
- What went well?
- What could be improved?
- What would we do differently?
- What patterns emerged that could become reusable?
## Phase 3: Next Iteration
Based on the retrospective:
- **New idea?** → Start fresh wiki/ or wiki-v2/
- **Improve current?** → Add plan-v2-*.md pages for next iteration
- **Extract patterns?** → Document reusable approaches in build-Patterns.md
## Phase 4: Update Navigation
Update _Sidebar.md with Retrospective section. Update Home.md with "Next Steps".
Start by reading my wiki/ folder.when to use it
