SEEKING FREELANCER - REMOTE - MVP Prototyping - 3 days Basic Design & Development

I'm looking get an MVP up and running over a weekend/3 days. Normally for personal projects I'd put something together myself however this is beyond my current skill set and my poorly written 'hack' won't cut it. I now need a solid base to demonstrate the initial concept to my potential customers to get feedback.

You'd be free to start from scratch & use your preferred technologies to develop a minimalistic group messaging web application & iOS app. In a nutshell - A user creates a group, invites other users via e-mail & all users within that group can post updates.

I'm super organised and very realistic with requirements. I have the basic database structure sketched out, wireframes & copy written.

This would be an ideal project for a developer that can fit in some extra weekend work.

I will be working alongside you during the project, removing as many obstacles as I can. I can take on the simpler tasks which will help me learn and leave you free to work on the challenges.

I'm also interested in hearing from any UI/UX designers so that I can get some longer term design ideas & concepts mapped out.

If you are interested please send a link to your portfolio and an estimate for 24 hours of work (3x8hour days).

I'm my username on gmail.com

Thanks!

SEEKING FREELANCERS - Remote - Frontend - Javascript, HTML, CSS

I'm looking for a number of people who are interested in freelance work in (primarily) JS. Remote is fine, prefer full time (or close) availability and some overlap with US Eastern time would help.

The development will be using our API and the Google Closure library (experience not required). A strong background in JS/HTML/CSS is needed.

There are a large number of projects available and they require little coordination, so they are pretty ideal for remote freelancing.

Contact me (Luke) at lwalker at monetate if you're interested or have any questions.

Thanks!

Summary:

Frontend/Ruby/Node

Backbone, Phonegap, Sencha, Node, Ruby and Rails.

Excellent architectural skills.

Just talk to me on abhishiv[at]gmail.com and you'll be sold.

In case you see this:

Our background is PL/SQL and Oracle Forms. We were annoyed with the way web applications are supposed to be built nowadays. We wanted to build the Forms for the 21st century, and Formspider is just that. It is an intuitive, elegant framework that just feels right to build applications with. A framework that empowers you, eliminates all the drudgery of the Web but embraces all its beauty. Once you start using it, you will never want to build with anything else.

NB: I just removed one extra word, changed "build" to "built" in one instance, and combined a sentence. I didn't do a full re-write.
