No experience required — Arduino (C++) or ESP32 (MicroPython)

You do *not* need any experience.

You do *not* need an Arduino. Also, you do *not* need an ESP32.

If you are very intelligent and if you solve engineering problems scientifically then I will pay you to learn C/C++ on Arduino or MicroPython on ESP32.

You will help me build a consumer IoT (Internet of Things) product.

Please read the section entitled, "HOW TO APPLY FOR THIS PROJECT" below.

You must live in one of my 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice countries to apply. In other words, please do *not* apply unless you live in one of my 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice countries.

✻ MY FIRST CHOICE COUNTRIES ✻

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Brazil

Bulgaria

Serbia

✻ MY SECOND CHOICE COUNTRIES ✻

Albania

Croatia

Kosovo

Mexico

✻ HOW TO APPLY FOR THIS PROJECT ✻

Perhaps you are thinking, "I am interested in this project. Therefore I must bid now!"

No.

According to Freelancer rules, if I were to invite you to bid on this project then you would be able to bid on this project *without* spending one of your bids. Perhaps you are thinking, "Oh. Now I understand! I will wait for you to invite me so that I do not have to spend one of my bids! But... wait a moment. How will you know I am interested in this project?" That is a very good question.

If you would like me to invite you to bid on this project, please paste...

Arduino_or_ESP32_26_Nov_2020

into your Freelancer profile so that when I search for...

Arduino_or_ESP32_26_Nov_2020

I will find your profile and probably invite you to bid on this project.

Please wait *patiently* for up to 48 hours for me to invite you because I do *not* have a bot, rather I would need to manually invite you to bid.

✻ PAYING YOU TO LEARN ✻

No. You aren't dreaming.

I would rather work with an inexperienced person who is very intelligent and solves problems scientifically than an experienced person who is neither very intelligent nor solves problems scientifically.

✻ I WILL PAY YOU DAILY FOR ONE HOUR OF YOUR TIME ✻

Hourly pay is generally beneficial to you because most freelancers underestimate the time required to complete fixed-price projects. I suggest you search on Google for "Reddit Fixed-Price vs. Hourly Software Development" to educate yourself.

✻ HOURLY RATE ✻

I estimate that you will normally work 1 hour/day for 10 US dollars/hour. But, I presume Freelancer will pay you 9 US dollars/hour after they deduct their 10% fee.

You will normally work 20 days each month for 9 US dollars/hour.

✻ YOU DO NOT NEED A MICROCONTROLLER ✻

You do *not* need to have a microcontroller because I will have an Arduino or ESP32. You will teach me in real-time by *text* chatting with me for one hour per day for five days each week. I will program the Arduino or ESP32 as we text chat (*not* video chat).

✻ TEXT CHAT ✻

You and I will text chat (*not* video chat) for one hour on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during a time that is convenient for you and me.

✻ WHY ARDUINO OR ESP32? ✻

I would prefer that you complete this project using MicroPython on ESP32. But, I've had difficulty finding someone who is interested in using MicroPython on ESP32. Therefore, I'm willing to have you work on this project using C/C++ on Arduino.

✻ C/C++ ON ARDUINO OR MICROPYTHON ON ESP32? ✻

Please either respond by pasting, "I prefer to C/C++ on Arduino" or "I prefer to use MicroPython on ESP32."

Don't worry. I will accept either response. Primarily, I want to figure out which is more popular among candidates. I think MicroPython on ESP32 is better for this project yet I suppose many candidates have used C/C++ or Arduino and therefore would prefer C/C++ on Arduino.

✻ DESIRABLE BUT NOT REQUIRED ✻

Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, .NET, microcontroller, IoT, electrical engineering, circuit design (PCB design), mechatronics, and/or electronics.

Java JavaScript Python Microcontroller C++ Programming
