I’m curious if anyone has any experience selling source code. Not so much freelancing, but just selling code you’ve already written.
I’m living in medium to high cost of living area in the USA. I’m sick of the full-time employment - layoff - job hunt - full-time employment cycle. I don’t see the employer / employee relationship getting any better.
Looking for other ideas.
I set out to make something that filled a specific need of mine but in a way that it would be easy to package up as a tool for other people meaning it was clean and well documented. Time spent is a little difficult as the majority of the work was research for a separate project that gave me the idea for this one. It was in the realm of weeks to build the end product and days to make their requested adjustments though. I believe the sale price was around $500 - $800. It also lead to doing other work for them in the same area which I think is the biggest gain when doing something like this
Sounds very cool. Thanks for sharing your experience with it.
