Hey all,
I'm an experienced software engineer working at a large tech company in Silicon Valley and have just started my LLC and plan on working on an app idea I've landed on.
I'm struggling to decide if I really need a partner. Although I technically can create an entire app myself I know that UX design is crucial to an apps marketing. I'm torn whether I should partner with an interested and experienced UX designer (a colleague from work) or if I should just design based off the UX books I've read myself.
Any chance there's other engineers here who've had to make this call?
