For maybe the first 24 hours at a grocery store, and then not so sure. Would your neighbors sell you supplies and food? Maybe not? And so many places now depend on cashless transactions and doubtful they have pen, paper, lockbox, and safe as a contingency plan.
The value in a presentation tool is that it can create a variety of presentations. The future of presentations will be variety (possibly via AI) to convey information in both optimal and creative ways.
I agree with Wayne that the needs of the user don’t seem to end, even if your project or contract completes. Either the need is to keep maintaining it, put a twist on it, radically change it, or abandon it for something else.
I don’t agree on testing. It’s been a long time since I bought into that, and even tests for uncertain behavior to have confidence is a form of tech debt, as the developer that follows you must make a decision whether to maintain the test or to delete it; its value doesn’t usually last. An exception would be verifying expected behavior of a library or service that must stay consistent, but that is not the job of most developers.
