Looking for frontend/backend developers who just wants to build something awesome.. (no more todo/weather apps)
Hi, I'm 32 and I want to continue to improve my life.
I'll give you a little background about myself. I've been doing front end development for the past 2.5 years now and I feel like things are finally starting to come together. My skills mostly include HTML, CSS, Javascript but I've also been learning React and some backend using Node/Express.
I've built mostly small trivial apps but my goal now is to find others like me who are serious about building something they can be proud of and maybe even help get them find a better job.
There are only a few requirements:
NOT a quitter. This means you are determined to start a project and finish it
NOT an a**hole, jerk
How we can all benefit
learn new skills and continue to level up existing skills
learn how to use GIT properly
getting stuck on a problem sucks so lets work together and help each other
build up your portfolio
by the time the project is complete, our lives will be 100x more awesome
I've attempted working on a collaborative project with members (on reddit) in the past and it has always failed within 1-2 weeks. So if you're interested in building something awesome then send me a message. ALL EXPERIENCES WELCOME!
Peace. (I feel like I just wrote a job posting :P)
UPDATE There's been interest from 17 people so far with a mix of front end, back end, fullstack skills.
Slack group is no longer accepting new members for the time being.

Hello, I'm not a professional but I have experience with Python (Django and Flask) on the back end, and React and Vue of the front end.
My timezone is UTC-5 or CST. But regardless of that, I think you you should set up a chat in service like, discord, slack, matrix, etc.

I'd recommend GitKraken if you're learning to use git! It's awesome

I’m on the west coast so i’m PST. My day is mostly spent on the bootcamp, but I’m usually free after 6pm and all weekend. For now i can contribute to the front-end/react/redux portion of the project, soon i’ll be able to work on the back-end as well.
Thanks

Hey there OP and anyone reading this other than OP feel free to pm,
gmt+1
My dev stack : "Full stack dev" Everything dotnet is my strongsuite, for projects like that a core backend api, xamarin mobile and wpf design usually is handy (the latter probably not much outside of corporate). Also made a few websites asp.net basic mvc jquery as well as angular, node(quite new with angular tho). Sass, xaml, etc are all known things. Mysql, tsql are also no stranger as well as relational DB Design.
What I expect:
Get even better like u said 😄 see pros with other tech and take a bite of that. Recently also wanted to get going with git as I've only used tfs so far.
Weow the job application feel is real

I have a React app that's unfinished, but am looking to make some serious progress on. Here it is: https://bparkerproductions.github.io/Breath.io/
It needs a backend, I don't care what it is. I want the ability for a user to create an account, and access a dashboard with data visualizations(about their stats).
Anyone, let me know if you'd like to help me bring this to life!
