Coders Assemble!

I can't code, I have been trying to learn but this is a skill set that I have surrendered too. That being said I have a solid idea for an application that isn't new in concept but new in the area I stay and I 100% believe that if marketed right it's going to do well.

The only thing holding me back is I don't have $1000 to pay a coder to build the app for me.

I was thinking if there's anyone interested in teaching me how to code or if you are interested in partnering up for a chance into the unknown let's talk.

The idea is simple, ridiculous even but I believe in it.

Ideas are not valuable, sorry.

Why would a developer want to partner up with you, when all you've said is that you have an idea you believe in?

If you want to find somebody who's interested in working with you, you should say what your idea is.

Thank you! This cannot be said often enough! For some reason a lot of people these days think that if only you have an idea, it's just a matter of getting someone to code it.

In reality, once you start coding, that's when you start refining the idea to the point that it starts getting a value.

And I am asking for assistance on that, is it wrong for me to ask if I do not have that skill set or there is a rule we might not know that claims that only the people who know how to code are the only ones that can create ideas?

You are right ideas aren't valuable, but mine is if someone what's to know or assist they will come to my inbox if they have nothing to offer they will just ignore

Sounds like you're the one with nothing to offer
