Hello all,

 

I am looking for a software developer(s) for a project. What are some good places to look? I have heard of guru.com but have never contracted anyone through there. Why am I asking on here? Because I have seen a lot of good developers working on Forge and making Minecraft a much better experience IMO and figure someone(s) on here might want to work on this and make money of course!

 

This is the blurb I have been working on (think I should add/remove something?):

 

-----

 

I have a customer that has an Access database that they want to do more with and then move on from. This will be a multiphase project:

 

Phase 0. (ASAP) Determine if current project is feasible.

 

Phase 1. (1 month?) Add ability for customer to route jobs based on distance from zip-code (nationwide USA) utilizing the current Access DB.

 

Phase 2. (1 year?) Move from Access DB to something multi-user and web modifiable. I am thinking LAMP based.

 

Phase 2a. Enable routing by driving distance not just radius.

 

Phase 3. (1-5+ years?) International, more robust, fault-tolerant, and enterprise. Could still be LAMP but with more hardware and support personnel.

 

So, looks like I am looking for a software developer(s) that is(are) comfortable with updating an Access DB and later converting to a LAMP-based multi-user web-accessible/modifiable DB. I could do it with different developer(s) per phase but unless Phase 1 isn't feasible I am not looking to bypass it.

 

The software developer(s) will do that all-important and fun design and programming portion but will also have input in the:

1. Infrastructure (software repository, hosting, maintenance, etc.)

2. Program management (goals, timelines, etc.)

3. Configuration management (versioning, pulls for official testing/delivery, etc.)

4. Testing (test cases, manual testing, etc.)

5. Documentation Management (doc creation, updating, etc.)

 

Pay will be commensurate with *ability*: we're talking real pay rate that is above board (taxed, contracted, etc.). Can be hourly, portion, or job. Can be individual, individuals, team or company.

 

I am platform and tool agnostic but do prefer OSS to closed;I do appreciate .NET and C# though. Agile software development but not a slave to it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the idea, I will check there. Good some contacts from my previous software development job- can't believe I didn't think about that!

 

So far:

Guru.com

LinkedIn.com

 

Any others?

LinkedIn is a good place but for Minecraft devs, I'm not sure. Also check odesk, I've heard some good stuff about it and I also remember someone in the past used it to create his own server with custom plugins.. but it requires you find the right people of course.

Thanks for the reply, John. At this time I am not looking for Minecraft devs- the project is basically for a database and website for a customer (business) of mine. Thanks again!

      RAPID DIGITAL RECOVERY IS THE FUTURE OF BITCOIN RECOVERY AND SECURITY

      By jaysonwilfred12 · Posted

      Reach Out To Rapid Digital: What sapp Info: +1 41 4 80 7 14 85 Email INFO: rap iddi gita lrecov ery @ exe cs. com Hello, my name is Jayson, and I’m 35 years old from the United Kingdom. My family and I recently endured an incredibly challenging experience that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. We became victims of a cryptocurrency investment fraud scheme that saw us lose a staggering $807,000 in USDT and Bitcoins. The fraudsters had created a convincing facade, and we were lured into investing, only to discover later that the platform was a complete scam. We were left devastated, not just financially, but emotionally, as we had trusted these people and believed in the legitimacy of the investment. After the initial shock wore off, we desperately searched for ways to recover the lost funds. It seemed like an impossible task, and we felt as though there was no hope. That’s when, by sheer luck, we stumbled across a post about Rapid Digital Recovery, a cryptocurrency and funds recovery organization with a proven track record in cybersecurity and fraud recovery. We decided to reach out to them, and from the first interaction, we were impressed with their professionalism and transparency. They explained the recovery process in detail and reassured us that they had the skills and expertise to track down the perpetrators and recover our funds. This gave us a renewed sense of hope, something we hadn’t felt in months. What truly stood out during our experience with Rapid Digital Recovery was their dedication to the recovery process. The team went above and beyond, using sophisticated tracking tools and cyber forensics to gather critical information. Within a matter of weeks, they had successfully located the funds and traced the scam back to the fraudsters responsible. They worked with the authorities to ensure the criminals were held accountable for their actions. To our relief, the team at Rapid Digital Recovery was able to recover every single penny we had lost. The funds were returned in full, and the sense of closure we felt was invaluable. We couldn’t have imagined such a positive outcome in the early stages of our recovery journey, and we are deeply grateful for the work they did. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend contacting Rapid Digital Recovery. Their expertise, transparency, and dedication to their clients make them the go-to choice for anyone seeking to recover lost cryptocurrency or funds. They truly gave us back our financial future.

      [1.21.4] Could not resolve LocalPlayer.sendSystemMessage

      By Cherry05 · Posted

      This is my first time modding anything, so maybe just skill issue. I'm using Forge 54.0.12 and Temurin 21.0.5+11-LTS I wanted to create a custom keybind and to check whether it works I'd like to send a chat message. I tried using Minecraft.getInstance().player.sendSystemMessage(Component.literal("test")); but IntelliJ couldnt resolve sendSystemMessage(...). Since I saw people using it in earlier versions, I tried the same thing with 1.20.6(- 50.1.0), where it works fine, now I can't figure out if this is intentional and whether there are other options for sending chat messages. On that note, is there more documentation than https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/1.21.x/? It seems very incomplete compared to something like the Oracle Java docs
