    Yup, ugly quick-and-dirty monoliths and then fix it and make it more object-oriented incrementally. You need something barely functional for tech demos if it's external, or you need shit prototyped quick if internal. Outside of designing databases (and school bullshit) I've never used even block diagrams before starting the ghetto-code.

    ghetto-code, well written, is a great basis to draw a block diagram from. In my industry, there are requirements to provide block diagrams for certain aspects of the system... some I pull out of -thin air- before starting anything, others are best generated from however the code finally took shape.
