Indeed. This is very much the way I use it at work. Present an idea of a design, iterate on it, then make a task/todo list and work through the changes piecemeal, reviewing and committing as I go. I find pair design/discussion practical here too. I expect to see smaller teams working like this in the future.
For small personal projects, it's more vibey.. eg. Home automation native UIs & services for Mac & Windows, which I wouldn't otherwise start.. more itches that can be scratched in my limited time.
