SEEKING FREELANCER | Europe | Remote

I'm looking for a designer/front-end developer to help me with the look-and-feel of a MVP I'm working on. The things I primarily need help with are colors, fonts and proportions that look nice and not something a backend developer threw together :) If you can deliver it as a Tailwind project you get to skip to the front of the line!

What I'm hoping to get out of this is a landing page, a content/article page and styled forms. More info available upon request!

Preferably EU based for ease of time zones and VAT invoicing. The project has a fixed budget of €500 + VAT (give or take €150).

You can reach me at hej @ my username. I speak fluent English and Swedish and mediocre Polish.

Why the downvote?
I can't figure it out either, but puzzling/frustrating as it is, please don't post comments asking about downvotes - it's against the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html). Usually unfairly downvoted comments get corrective upvotes eventually (as happened above), but off topic ones like this get downvoted more.
