Ask HN: How would you use 50k to move idea forward?

Going to take a leap... Have an idea that has been causing me to lose sleep for a while now. Zero coding skills (started CodeYear recently) Every time I discover and learn something new from reading HN posts I apply it and feel a sense of accomplishment as my idea is coming to life. I went from Balsamiq wireframe to a fireworks click-through prototype in the past 3 weeks. Although I will be using my own money to start, I lack the technical savvy to avoid having a potential setback from hiring the wrong freelancers or company to build my idea. My thinking is that I will have a better chance at finding a technical co-founder from this initial build. If not, I would still have made progress to hopefully lead to finding a technical partner. Not looking for advice in regards to incorporation or vesting, as I already have a grasp of this and a competent attorney will be involved. I'm hopeful and looking for any advice about having it built. Must do's, Don't do's, pros, cons, recommendations Thanks! What would you suggest?
