I will build your web application, this week, for $750

I'm currently looking to make a switch to doing a lot more freelance/contract style work, and as such have been doing some soul searching to identify my strengths and weaknesses - as well as the unknowns - to make this go smoothly.

I've come to the conclusion that the biggest unknown stems from the fact it's been quite a long time since I had the experience of taking somebody else's idea from concept to completion, and this is a far more important factor in my likelihood of success than how much experience I have in the technologies.

So, I'd like to make an offer to HN - I will build that web application that has been kicking around in your head for ages, this week, for $750. I'll be using Ruby on Rails, and Ember if a heavyweight JS framework suits the application. I won't be doing any 'design' work as such, as it's not my focus, but the end result will of course have a fully functional and presentable UI - think basic Bootstrap, you will be comfortable showing it off as an MVP.

I will expect you to come to the table with a fairly fleshed out idea of what you want - wireframes, API details etc. would be awesome of course, but no worries if you're not that prepared - we can hash it out over a Skype call or similar. You just need to have a reasonably solid view of your idea. Naturally, this should be an MVP or something completable in a week or two, but if you're not sure if your app is a good fit, try anyway.

$750, by the way, was chosen as it's about as low as I can go in my current situation while still allowing the proper amount of time and dedication to do a great job - I briefly considered 'free', but I don't want this to be a throwaway project, or neither of us gain anything out of it. We have to build something great for it to work. :)
