How do I start an app?

I’m looking to develop a pretty complicated app. I think it will cost me 100k+. I don’t have that type of money. I have a solid idea of what I want but truthfully i don’t know what exactly it will cost me. I just know it’ll be alot. What should be my first move?

dude, you should always start with folks you can trust IRL before feeding WSO.  The exception being if this were some gay furry hentai snapchat app or something for extremely-politically-offensive banter, then you would probably not discuss that with your favorite chums IRL.

Yes I'm searching for young startups. No it's not to "steal anyone's idea" like some quasi-sentient retard said above; it'd be to find a program that was promising and fund it (in PE). realistically, you can get $ when you get into whichever IB and moreover, find acquintences who can help find a coder you want.

Find the right woman/guy for the job? Call your friends as university and find a compsci friend of a friend; ask your family and future coworkers (not until you start working there, they want you to seem focused coming in).

DK where you went to school, a lot of coders at my semi-target, affluent college don't know shit about programming but act like they do because affluenza and we have a strong finance impact in state. They were ego-stroked to believe they're Geof Bezos because they can "print()" in python. Stack Exchange if you have something extremely niche that you cannot definitely find through WOM.

yes thar be grifters afoot but you should talk to folks IRL as a procedure, not as an exeption. Hope this educates you for future startups :D.

I'm guessing 60-65 based on nothing but chance.  Please update for sake of knowing if my shot in the dark was wrong

Good luck

 

OK!

How many hours do you think it would take to be able to code at a reasonable level? I just started the other week. 

 

depends on how smart you are, and how much effective time you can spend learning.

i would expect 10 hours a week, 16 weeks = 160 hours (so about 4 months) and you can build a MVP front to back application.

you'll make some engineering mistakes...but those can be fixed as you learn

just google it...you're welcome
 

either pM me about what the app does or comment with deets. Thank you

I worked with some guys trying to make a phone app. Didn't cost 100K but would've cost some "sweat" equity. You first and 4most don't want someone who doesn't know how to code writing your app(I'm inferring you do or have friends who can write for ya?)

Don't have a massive amt of coding background but curious

 

IF I had more SB/Monkey shit to throw I would. NO, I am not

60K would be my bet, 89-103K if more complex. who knows? Depends on the SWE and the end goal for the app.
without even knowing what features the application will have you cannot say.
See how details bring clarity to an evaluation?

everyone else here is grifting for partnership/deteails bro
