I've gotten to where I'm sketching out things on paper, listing everything I'd like to do, then going to my friend who's writing all the code and asking, "Can we do this?" In my mind, it comes down to knowing who's on your team and what they can each do, then communicating needs effectively. We all have a few overlapping skills, but teaching everyone everything is too much, and not especially efficient. I’m running into the same issue with a new project.
