Best resource for hiring a T3 Developer
I have been developing my application for awhile now and I'm reaching a point where I am unable to create some of the complex trpc mutations that I need. I have never hired a developer before so I have a few questions about this.
1. Developer websites
What websites do you guys use for finding reliable developers for technologies used in the T3 stack? I looked on Upwork but I didn't see Prisma developer as a searchable skill. Some of what I need done involves Prisma but also involves recursive data structures. Are there any developer websites where I can search for experience in "recursive data structures" or something like this?
2. Developer Experience?
How do you pay someone who 'claims' they are experienced but spends weeks trying figure something out that they don't actually know? I'm completely fine with hiring someone who is lacking some experience, but do you typically pay for all the time they spend trying to figure out what they should already know? Can I pay someone a set amount based on the job rather than pay hourly?
3. Protecting your application
If I were to hire a developer, how do you protect yourself from them just copying all of your code, creating a copy of your application and claiming they made it?
3. Cost
Could someone give me an estimate on how much it would cost for me to hire someone to create a few trpc mutations? These are nested self-relation mutations. Prisma does not support recursive mutations yet but I need to find someone that can create a manageable mutation that goes 11 levels deep (update parent table, update the child of the parent, update the child of the child, etc x11). There are a couple of recursive functions I need created on the front-end as well.
Any advice would be appreciated

@MW @cje Do you think there should be a dedicated thread for hiring T3 developers from this community?
