Fantastic! Feel free to reach out when you give it a stab. We're looking for feedback and happy to provide help to our testers.

For a production app, see https://yoric.co/home , but i'm afraid we can't share the code. For examples, there's a tutorial walkthrough in the book, which we will be continuing to e…

As a project manager, I've used this in two projects over the last year (of four done through our company). If you have questions or thoughts I'm here to help.

What I really want to see is Gigster's contract . What terms do they make their clients sign? To do any kind of fixed-price work, you need absolutely ironclad protection against sc…

I've built or managed the teams that built over 50 software projects, ranging from small up to about half a million dollars. With all that experience, my estimate process is now ex…
