I usually tend to think over what I (personally) would expect the project to have / be. Nothing more, nothing less. That keeps me motivated.

I started m4b-tool[1] for using it myself - and noticed, that the most features, I wanted it to have where not available in existing, free solutions. So I started to note things down, I would like to have for a utility to merge / create audio books.

Now the project is a bit bloated and I learned so much on the way to its current state, that I'm thinking over rewriting it (not in RUST, but in C# ;) but it was a joyful journey with a lot of new ideas and experiences.

Pro tip: Early shipping is very good for geetting early feedback and new ideas. Don't be afraid to publish something unpolished.
