Ask HN: Is there a place for professionals to trade skills
I am currently trying to build an iOS app and I have, what I think, are some basic questions that any experienced iOS dev could easily answer.
Sure, I could post them on StackOverflow, but I feel like a good "1 hour" sit-down session with an iOS developer would be infinitely more valuable than a piecemeal Q&A format. That way I could get a more holistic view and understanding.
I was hoping there was a site where I could go to trade my skills for theirs. I will trade 1-2 hours of my backend & Android help for 1-2 hours of iOS help.
Is there such a site / app? Ideally it would allow for location filtering so, if desired, one could meet-up in person.
There are a lot of educational resources out there: - Coursera - Treehouse - Skillshare
But they are all one-way and require one to follow a specific course. I want more ad-hoc education.
Basically, scratch my back and I will scratch yours.
