If anyone wants to learn more about building Discourse plugins or just about Ruby on Rails and Ember.js, here’s a standing offer. I can train you, providing detailed personal direction on how to code; how Discourse works; how to think about your users; and how to think about product design in ex…

This is very cool, should it be in marketplace as well? OK to cross-post a bit and link back.

I’m interested. I started doing web development with Perl back in '98 and developed quite activity until about 2003… in the mean time I moved into management and later sales and distribution management. I managed a decent sized rails project from 2006 - 2008 and got my hands into some of it. Then I …

For several months I have been working with @Angus in the project he mentioned above. But Angus was not just mentoring. Every time he tried to make me understand the concepts involved without just answering my questions. He ensured I was following all the best practices in coding rather than just wr…

That’s an awesome offer and I’d love to join but I’m far from the most qualified, I’ve mostly focused on how to glue existing software together with tiny bits of custom code and dabbled a little in a few other programming languages like C++, perl and Python. Pretty much zero Ruby and JS experience. …

Thanks to everyone who has expressed interest so far! I’ve decided I’ll take expressions of interest until the end of the work week, i.e. end of Friday wherever you live. For those who have expressed interest, I have given them a small problem and given till the end of the week (i.e. the end of Su…

Hey Angus, this is awesome, thanks for posting! Both a generous offer, and a creative way to sustain development efforts on a whole slate of great plugins…seems like a total win win. I’m tentatively interested, need to take some time tonight to go through your post on Discourse development basics, …

Angus, I’m in the same boat as @bts . I really don’t have any development experience but would absolutely love learning and im definitely interested in the opportunity. I’ll send you a pm tomorrow evening once ive read your basics. Although without having done any reading, i already have an idea of …

Thanks to everyone who has expressed interest, the response has been great and I appreciate it. I’m not taking any further expressions of interest. For those who have expressed interest, you have until the end of Sunday to complete the exercise (as some have already).

Thanks again to everyone who expressed interest and turned in solutions to the problem. I’ve chosen the first two participants in my ‘program’, @ryanerwin and @Ellibereth . We’ll be learning about Rails, Ember and Discourse while working away on various items on my plugin to do lists for the next 4…

I just wanted to say that this is an awesome offer and a great example of thinking outside of the box. It has a lot of potential, I think, to snowball, like the old 80s Faberge Organics commercial : you train two people, they train two people, and they train two people, and so on, and so on. [afb…

For anyone on this topic that was interested in improving their plugin developing ability, I thought that a “newby discourse dev” category might be a useful tool. If you think so too, chime in:
