I still want out of this foolery as they are paying literal pennies but I feel like I'm getting some serious exposure to some things today.

Resume building time. Keep track of all you do.

Circles back to what Pete and I were saying. Depends on the scope of the project.
Let's use Lyft as an example. They use one app for drivers and one app for customers. That's 2 apps being made right there with different functionality.
Something like UberEats, you would need 3 apps. Customer, driver, and then one for restaurants

Ok, two apps for what I need. One for customers and one for employees.

Yes, that is a low, very low budget for what you're trying to accomplish.

Depending on the size of your team, it would take maybe a year or two for a full fledged team to make a Lyft type/competitor app. Your budget would only pay for...maybe one month's salary for one or two developers.

You'll need to cover the cost of your dev team, plus any additional cost that may come with development (hosting services, data services, etc.). Again, this is just for the team, not including the cost to actually start a business or run a business, depending on where you're at there...I'm sorry to say, your $8,000 ain't cutting it

I think its doable if he outsourced. Specifically the app portion of the venture. There are Whole tenured computer science professors in india barely making $9k per year. If @MyApps is willing to baby sit them, he could probably recruit 2-3 new BS grads in india/philipines/kenya for a year . They are spread out all over these coding gig sites begging for work. Only issue is that he may not have the underlying knowledge to know when his "team" has messed something up. Q/A would be non-existent.:patrice:




Globalism is beautiful.:wow:

I'm really enjoying the backend. This is some fascinating stuff :ohhh:

I'm taking a node js class at the moment. I kinda like it:ehh:

I'm still learning how express fits on top of it and makes things better. Well, I haven't made it to that part of the class yet :lolbron:

As much as I dont like JS and working with NodeJS, express was one library I enjoyed. It helped me pick up Django and Flask much easier because it taught me about building REST like APIS (what's it called when it doesn't follow REST principals, but its not SOAP?)
