Software Development Consultation
10
I will help you enumerate and evaluate your software requirements to determine the following:
(1) An estimate of how many development hours will be required for a working prototype
(2) An overview of what technologies and skills might be useful for your project
(3) A general idea of what the architecture for your project might look like
(4) A detailed development road map to help you navigate the project to completion
I can also try to help with problems encountered while working on new or existing* projects or school work. If I am not able to help you solve your problem, or it is outside of my skill set, I will not require any compensation for my time.
Whether you are a novice struggling on a class assignment or a professional stuck on a tough problem, I would be happy to help you in any way I can.
A "Session" will vary in time and depth depending on your needs. Some problems may require multiple sessions. I am happy to negotiate whatever seems reasonable for the problem at hand.
*Note for existing projects: due to the nature of software development, the amount of help I can offer will likely vary inversely with the size/complexity of your project. I cannot promise to devote any significant amount of time to learning all the details of your existing architecture in all cases. As mentioned above, I will not charge you for any time spent that does not help you solve your problem.
