looking for someone with experience with:
react-native, firebase and iOS.

Mainly iOS, im really stuck and i could use a little help, my google fu has reached its limit for this..

Partner wants to hire a freelance consultant for iOS development, (because I cant make anything out of their retarded ecosystem), on my advise.

After a year im still getting paid 0$/h, and we have to hire someone...

Is this the point where i wear a dunce hat?

i know i sound like a broken record...

but 100$ a year to have the prestigious privilege to develop for iOS, granted by the god emperor Jobs himself....

and no fucking proper output logs during build-time....

100$ a year... professional software...

2019
growing actual hatred for apple.
worked full time for 0/hr for the last 365 days on a mobile app.
got a resin 3d printer.

2020
hopefully get an income.

Listing my skills:
I have published react-native apps.
I can build an extensive backend/API thing with node.JS/a good framework.(worked on something for my countries national football league during an internship as main/only dev)
I have some experience with c# but havent used it since school.
I have no issue getting into new frameworks/languages, as long as its not PHP.

I have experience working in software teams.
I have experience running my own company(Online store selling airsoft supplies - i quit).

Im working towards getting familiar with Tensorflow 2.0.
I have a Cambridge English assessment certificate at grade C2.

I am currently working(for 0 pay for 50% of the shares) on developing a social media app that uses location tracking on a 20-200 meter scale.

I have ADHD and have been spoken on/warned due to its effects( i.e. forgetting to report progress, getting distracted, needing stimulation so i browse youtube(even have it playing in the bottom corner sometimes), poor communication.

Am i worth anything at all as a developer... im getting pretty depressed due to not having an income at this point... and I dont think anyone will hire me

I just love that my entire project is dead in the water because firebase/database is completely broken on iOS, and im apparently the only person in the world that uses it because there is 0 prio to get it fixed it seems.

(more specific, the react-native-firebase library)
(yes it is a confirmed library issue)

apple is an IT company..

"New apps and app updates will not be accepted December 23–27 (Pacific Time), so any releases should be scheduled, submitted, and approved in advance."

Ah yes, because ofcourse the servers can go home and spend the holidays with their applets.

(yes i know apple says they verify by hand, yes i know in reality they actually automate it)

i wrote an app for 0$ while working on it fulltime for a year

Why do I always get the response: "just comment your code better" whenever im looking into ways to make my files smaller and more pleasant to read by abstracting big chunks into different files.

Or when i want to generate some documentation with storybooks or something.

Is it just me or am i that rebellious by wanting cleaner code..

I repeatedly find myself having to ask and get frustrated about things that are 101 level..

100$ a year, and this is the detailed crash info...

100$ a year...

apple sucks
iOS sucks
Xcode sucks
Cocoapods suck
iphones suck

can this company and OS please please die already

Does anyone know how to fix my current issue, because this seems to be a very obscure case.

current situation: user is logged in on our app and wants to add a link to their "instagram" profile.
The user presses "add profile" button and has to fill in their username.
Issue: users dont know their username, or misspell them(this causes users to lose interest)

What we want it to be:
already logged in user presses "add" and gets directed to the social media in question to authorize our app which then returns a link to the users profile

feel super motivated to work on important project

Cant produce any actual work when sitting in front of it.

When not in front of it, badly want to go back to project to work on it.

Repeat cycle

Tech illiterate partner in startup: "We need a password to add your social media profile because people are misspelling their names and now im getting someone i dont know when I click the link"

... how about... idk.. not misspelling your username or just edit it...

I have been working on an app for the startup i co-founded as only developer fulltime for the last 8 months...

I have yet to buy my first bread from the money i dont earn..

woops...

I would rant about apple and their horrible horrible system of just even being able to deploy an app to testers..

But you have to pay me 100$ a year so you can be able to find it out yourself, fuck support, we just want free money ~ herr jobs/ herr coo(c)k

Pressing a keyboard shortcut in your emulator/other program when you are back and forthing between your IDE and the thing you are working.

*presses ctrl-z thinking i'm in vscode, android emulator: "let me just completely shit myself"*

People around me and clients are increasingly saying i am a genius, because i show them an app i made in react-native or some crappy site i set up in a week as POC.

While im quite noobish still, i barely read publications out of interests, and most of the time i just put in async/await somewhere just to see if it makes the promise work or not, because i dont understand promises fully, and I think in general i just accomplished very little in the 5 years I have been programming

It is really putting pressure on my impostor syndrome, even more when i talk with my peers who can tell who was the driving force behind ES6 :/

JS: dont worry, we got this simple decode function build in.

Node: yeah we had this build in but we took it out, now you have to require the module first and then declare it and then you can use it!

php sucks.

When your co-worker of 2 years forgets to sweeten your tea.. (on the last day of a sprint no less)

where my fellow while(tea > 0){write(code)} peeps at

So we are deploying our hip new react-native app on the playstore and all is fine and happy, being in the playstore gives you a warm fuzzy feeling that your app finally has been set out in the world....

Then comes the iOS store... you monster, you have let your app into a minefield, there is no warm caring environment, there are only white sterile walls around him and at the slightest misstep your app gets marked and send to a correctional facility, tortured and interrogated until it falls in line..waiting for the next misstep hoping the overseers will not notice his untied shoelaces....

I'm getting so sick of people bitching about their privacy and apps (looking at you gdpr).
They want full anonymity and share 0 data... well fine but then pay me 2.99 a month to use my service... oh you don't want to spend money well ok then, ill use some of your metrics and share them with advertisers so you can keep using the service at no cost... oh you don't want us to collect the data you are already spewing around on every online platform? well then we cant have you using our service because you are costing us money... what? the gdpr is forcing us to keep providing you with the service... but... who is going to pay for resource costs?!
arrghh!!
</rant>

ps: the gdpr is so full of loopholes, half the arguments you "nerds(be honest you read it on facebook that we have to delete you data...haha..)" use for how great it is are...well... moot

pps: with you nerds I don't mean the readers of this
