Let me build your MVP Rails app for just $200. I won't do any graphical design but I will work on the front end if needed.
Why so low? This'll be my first time programming something for someone else so the low price is there to accommodate any issues if there are any.
What I'll require of you: 1.) Email me your idea and once I'm ready to commit we can have a Skype call and scope out the requirements. 2.) The ability to promptly reply to emails. I believe in good communication. 3.) Know what you want; have your design ready. This will make the process of scoping out the requirements go by faster. 4.) Payment: $100 up front, $100 on completion. 5.) You own the code, but I reserve the right to talk about and put images of the app on my portfolio.
Given that your app will be placed on my portfolio it is in my best interests to make sure you're happy with your app.
Thank you to ceeK for the idea.
Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.
