Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could provide some advice regarding an app that I’ve had on my mind for a while back but haven’t been able to get off the ground due to being in full-time work.
Anyway, I attended the CF development week and that revived my interest in developing my app further but I’m a bit unsure as how to progress and wondered if you have any suggestions or advice. I realise that your time is valuable but I thought I’d ask!
Currently I can see four ways forward for me
-
Finding time outside of work to build on my original idea and develop a working prototype. This would mean I would have to learn CFML and programming to a more advanced level than my current knowledge and also find time outside of work. The upside being I would have improved my coding skills and would have the developed the source code.
-
I raise the funds to hire developers to build the product for me. I imagine that this would be costly! However, not impossible.
-
I find a team of likeminded developers who find the project interesting and are willing to take things forward on a joint basis. I noticed that there was a number of companies at the CF development week such as Ortus. Also, someone mentioned the CF Community develops projects. I kinda don’t know too much about the CF community so wouldn’t know who to contact etc.
-
I also have a number of friends who may be interested in setting up a start-up company but obviously I would have to clarify the business idea and develop the product spec and figure out to launch and be viable etc.
Any ideas for options for proceeding would be welcome 
Best Regards,
Paul
