[bisq-network/bisq] Out-sourcing development on the Bisq mobile app? (Discussion #6108)

[Devin Bileck]

I am curious if anyone has any opinions or ideas on out-sourcing development on the [Bisq mobile app](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-client)?

I have not been able to find any contributors to help nor have I been able to make much meaningful progress myself, mainly due to a lack of time and inexperience with KMP. As a result, out of curiosity I reached out to a couple reputable company's that seem up to the task. I haven't committed to anything, but now have a basic idea how they work and how much they would charge for a fixed period of time. Though I don't yet know how much time it would take for certain functionality to be implemented or to deliver an MVP. Ideally, I would like to deliver all milestones described in the [project plan](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-client/wiki/Project-Plan), but would need further discussions with them to work out a cost and time frame.

Even if we were to just get the project off the ground with a basic foundation and functioning MVP, it should be a catalyst to help jump start the project and might help attract contributors especially inexperienced contributors as they would have a foundation to build from.

I don't mind driving this project forward, and before I commit to anything I would first work out more details and lay out a time frame with costs and deliverables to ensure it would deliver value and remain within our dev budget.

However, I would need to secure funding up front. I don't think I will be able to source all the funds myself and would need to find alternatives, possibly crowdfunding or a joint contribution.

Just thought I would open this idea up for discussion in case anyone has any opinions or ideas...
