 ## 🆘 **Contingency Plans**
 
 ### **If Day 1 Takes Longer:**
+
 - Focus on core functionality first
 - Defer advanced utility functions to Day 2
 - Prioritize circular dependency resolution
 
 ### **If Day 2 Takes Longer:**
+
 - Focus on high-impact views first
 - Batch similar components together
 - Use automated scripts for common patterns
 
 ### **If Issues Arise:**
+
 - Document specific problems
 - Create targeted fixes
