Imagine you‘re working on a side project and you were able to trade one of your skills with another for some time.
A software developer could become a marketer. Or a marketer a designer. Or a designer a software developer.
When I work on my projects oftentimes I‘d wish to have some consultation for marketing related topics. I know that many of you feel the same. Not in terms of marketing but probably with a different field. Most of the time just a couple of minutes of exchange can make a huge difference.
So I thought why don‘t we build a tiny database which records everybody who‘s willing to share some skill in exchange with another expertise. – 30min of development consultation for 30min of marketing help.
I prepared an Indie Hacker Skill Trade Database on Notion

Curious how this works out.
I would offer logo design and trade for help with JavaScript. Can be reached through IH. 2-4 hours.
Thank you for being the first mover. I‘ll add you to the tiny list. :)
Are there any JS specific questions you‘ve got? I‘m using it heavily on my day job.
P.s., think skill trading is a good idea for cash-strapped bootstrappers.
Self-taught coder using vanilla JS... I'm using SWUP.js which overrides page loads and replaces specific page content. I had to find a way to dynamically load scripts based on URL. I did, but event listeners and variables are persistent, and I have a feeling that when my website gets a bit more complex, both listeners and vars will run into conflicts.
