Ask HN: is anyone interested in a short term collaboration or skills exchange?

11 pointsby squarepeg16 ปีที่แล้ว2 comments

Motivated by the recent 'November launch' thread, I've decided to restart a stalled project of mine. I've been working on it on and off for several months but I hate the design aspect. I'm much happier coding and marketing. If it's ever going to launch then I'll need some help with the UI and design.

As such, are there any designers here who would be interested in collaborating with me in exchange for some programming work? I'm proficient in php, java and ruby/rails (with a strong preference for the latter). I'm looking for someone who has experience building interfaces for web apps. Familiarity with rails (especially templates) would be a bonus but is not required.

If you're interested, please email me (address in profile). I live in the UK (nr Wigan, North West)

thanks, Ahmed

Could you elaborate a bit on what kind of project it is? Your description is very vague.

It's an equipment and room booking/reservation system for schools and colleges (initially). I have some ideas about the interface I want but I like the design chops to implement them efficiently.

There are the usual elements found in web apps like dashboards, navigation and forms. There are also month/week/day views to view and make bookings for a given resource.
