I interviewed a (junior) candidate once that had tried and failed at a hackathon to build an Rails system that connected restaurants and shops with excess food to charities that gave food away to those that needed it.

I asked him what he’d done to work around the technical difficulties, and it turned out that he’d set up a Wordpress site with a phone number of the guy running the scheme, and a Google sheet to manage contact details.

A better definition of MVP I’m yet to see.
