Ask HN: How to find good app developers

2 pointsQuinzel11mo ago1 comments

I have an idea for a web based/app based business that will be disruptive to a currently lucrative industry.

I have the skills to do the work in terms of putting together a business plan, and doing market research etc… I even have the skills to do things like wireframes etc and general design stuff (I have an MBA in digital transformation).

What I don’t have is the actual app development skills.

What are some solutions I can use to actually create even just a prototype so that I could create a close to viable product to pitch to investors? And how much money should I realistically be looking to spend?

I’m looking for lots of suggestions that might help me bridge the gap between my actual business knowledge and the technical skills I lack.

Thanks :)

Use AI to create a prototype ie Repl.it / V0 or just gemini 2.5 pro
