Start a project
Tell me what you are trying to build
Describe the problem rather than the solution — working out which one fixes it is my job. The more context here, the more useful my first reply.
Before you write
Common questions
How do projects usually start?
With a short call — 20 to 30 minutes — to work out what you actually need and whether I am the right person for it. If I am not, I will say so. If I am, you get a written proposal with fixed scope, fixed price and a delivery date before any work begins.
What happens after launch?
30 days of included support for anything that is not working as specified. After that, a monthly care plan is available for monitoring, security patching, verified backups and small changes — but it is optional, and the site is yours to maintain however you prefer.
Can you work with my existing team or codebase?
Yes. I work in Git with pull requests and code review, and I am comfortable joining an existing team. For an existing codebase I will do a short review first and tell you honestly what state it is in before quoting.
