Ask HN: A site to find devs, designers to work on projects?

5 points by karangoeluw 12y ago ↗ HN

I'm wondering if there's an active site where I can find other devs and designers to work with on projects that we mutually have an interest in. Any ideas?

I sometimes have success on HN. Disasters on sites like Freelancers.com. I run a r&d team and am always on the prowl for good designers and developers wanting to solve hard problems. I'd encourage anyone who fits that criteria to email innovation@ieee.org with info on what types of projects you like to work on and how much time you have to dedicate to them :-)

I'm very interested as well. Currently looking for a designer to help me work on the frontend of http://resrc.io

I didn't know this was a startup :-/ just thought of it as a public service...

However, I will continue contributing to it.

It is not a startup, it is public service. But still, it needs some design work, don't you think?

There are a lot of 'founder matchmaking' websites out there, but I haven't heard any good stories. Otherwise try the monthly Freelance thread here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7507753 or Toptal, Elance, etc.

You might be interested it http://builditwith.me, a platform for people with ideas to find designers/developers.

It appears to be mostly old listings (earliest idea is from Feb 2014) but people will probably still be receptive to emails. YMMV.
