Should I outsource development? (alien.top)

Hello,

I want to publish an app (it is a rather simple one), but dont have any experience in software development. Is it wiser to learn it on my own to have full control over the app or should I outsource it? I saw many developer on fiver that are offering Development for 500-2000$. Are they worth it? And if I do it on my own, should I do Swift or Flutter development?

Thanks in advance

Mobile dev is hard, but people still write apps all the time. Do you have any experience in software? If so, I’d give flutter or chatGPT plus a crack first. The worst thing you’ll lose is a bit of time.

I’d be very cautious of fiver unless you feel very confident designing mocks and outline tickets/PRDs. If that route goes poorly you’ll be out time and money.
