I've seen people "solder" the leads on the backs of perf board too! While it
works, it sure has a tendency to look sloppy! MNS

When working with simple perfboard (just holes, no 'traces' connecting

using jumper wires for point-to-point wiring on the backside, but that
seems a bit ugly.

That's the usual way. If you just show people the front of the board it
doesn't matter if the back is untidy.
