Hello Mike, I need advice on how to move my idea forward. This idea has been keeping me up at night constantly. Obviously, I lack the technical skills needed to personally build my idea. Even though I am proud of creating a Firework's click-through prototype! I am currently learning to code with Codeyear, but it's safe to assume that it would take a long time for me reach a level where I can build it myself. I have personal money (50k) that I am willing to invest to start the build. Don't want to burn through those funds by hiring the wrong freelancers or company. Not to mention, I lack the technical savvy and experience to find a quality person or company to hire. It is better to pay to have it built, try to learn to code, or hope that I can find a technical co-founder?

Thanks for any advice!

Thanks for the feedback. I'm just ready to get it going and discouraged that it will take some time for me to be able to code. Not my goal to be wasteful and burn through my budget. Just want to know the do's and dont's of hiring someone to build my prototype.
