We are developing a purely free and public welfare third-party launcher for gamers. However, due to the fact that we only have three active developers and we have encountered numerous setbacks during the development process, we have no choice but to post this message for help. Please assist us. Thank you very much.

Welcome to Daniweb. What kind of help are you looking for?

commented: We need partners who can assist in the development process. As long as you are proficient in programming languages such as C++ and C#, +0

I guess this will likely be attractive to freelance developers. What time commitment are you looking for? And what hourly/daily rate are you offering?

We are purely a non-profit organization and do not require a lot of time. We only need to fix some bugs and maintain the software occasionally. The daily investment time does not exceed two hours. If it is on a per-day basis, we are sorry but we cannot provide any fees as this is a non-profit project.

Is there anyone who wants to work on this together?

Being a non-profit does not preclude you from paying for development services. Would I be correct in saying that you are looking for a professional developer to gift you 2 hours of their time a day for zero payment? Or perhaps you mean you couldn't commit to offering full day contracts, rather just 2 hours a day? If so that's completely reasonable too and could very well suit some people. What would you be willing to pay someone for those 2 hours?

Why limit yourself to say C++ and C#? I'm reading a major move to RUST.

C++ today would be for legacy stuff. I won't start a new from scratch effort in C++ today.

Perhaps there was a mistake in my translation. You don't need to be an expert. No matter which programming language you know, since this is a non-profit project, we can't make a profit from it. It's purely for the benefit of gamers. If we have to pay such a high fee for this, we really can't afford it. Also, it's not a fixed two hours every day. You just need to spend a little time in your spare time. Most of the time is free, and you can focus on your own things.

Even for beginners, we warmly welcome them. Just consider it as an opportunity to enhance your skills.

Would you consider open source for your project? You might encourage some participation using that model? It's worked for many other projects.

Our project has always been open-source and completely free and non-profit.
