I’ve had mixed luck trying to find solid front-end dev partners. One time I brought someone on who looked great on paper, but they just couldn’t hit deadlines or communicate well. That setback cost us a client. I’m more cautious now, but still looking. What’s worked for you when it comes to finding reliable help?

Ah, I’ve been down that road too. A few years ago, I was managing a rebranding project and hired a freelancer who completely ghosted halfway through the sprint. Since then, I’ve changed my whole approach. Instead of rushing in, I started looking for teams with proven project histories and strong references. One of the things that helped was this link that breaks down what to look for in vetted front-end partners — really helped me refine my checklist. Having clear expectations from day one made all the difference. I now ask for code samples early, set up a test task, and prioritize communication style as much as skill.

Funny seeing this topic — I’m not in dev myself, but I’m always curious how teams build out their tech. My buddy runs a small SaaS company and he talks a lot about how finding the right partners can make or break a launch. It’s interesting how much goes into something that, from the outside, seems like just “hiring a dev.” Makes you appreciate the process more when you realize how many variables are in play.
