The Precedent’s designer here. When I wrote my “for hire” ads, my bullet points were these:
· Typography-based design system with Figma
· Robust CSS with Tailwind CSS
· Straightforward JavaScript with Alpine.js or Stimulus
I also noted that my preferred back-end language and framework were Ruby and Rails (on which Preceden is built).
So being clear, specific, and knowing some solid technologies and design/code tactics helped me find someone like Matt, who has been a very good collaborator these past few years.
It was posted on Haker News (Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?), Reddit (r/forhire
r/DesignJobs r/freelance_forhire), and Tailwind Discord.

- drewda 4y agoThanks for sharing. I am curious to hear how you start with new clients like this. Do you identify one task to do together with a very well defined scope and a fixed cost? Do you just get started on an hourly basis and whether it's working well together?
- webpraktikos 4y agoWe’ll usually start with a task based on an hourly rate, not a fixed cost.
