How is the project development process going?

Question

Project management

There is an idea for a project, for its implementation you first need 2 programmers: Android and Web. But I don't quite understand how to implement it.
The first option: I thought if I hire two freelancers (Android and Web), they will do my project for me and that's it. And how to improve it further? How to make changes and fix problems? Hire a freelancer again?
Another option is to assemble a team. We already have a designer, so we need to find two programmers. We will make a project, then the elimination of various bugs will begin and ... what's next? It seems to me that after that most of the time the team will sit idle. You can start creating another project, but the first one also needs to be given time periodically. Will there be porridge at work?
Tell, please, who already has experience, how the development process goes =)

Answer 1

You definitely need a co-founder who:
a) knows how to organize the development process
b) all the development technology and platforms used
c) will constantly do this
. Otherwise, your training will be very painful.

Answer 2

And how to improve it further? How to make changes and fix problems? Hire a freelancer again?

And - the same is best. After all, he is already familiar with the project.
You will have the same coordinates.
A good specialist is hard to find.
And if the work of a specialist suits you, then you will turn to him and turn and turn.
Your own team is technically much more efficient.
But its content is also much more expensive.
A little.
It all depends on your organization of this business.
And on how self-organized / competent they are.
In large projects, they do this:
They invite many qualified specialists for permanent work to develop.
After 2-3 years, when the project is completed, that is, when the main part of the work is completed, they are fired (yes, they will quit themselves, they will not be interested anymore).
They are replaced by a smaller number of less qualified specialists for the so-called. "support" created.

Answer 3

It is necessary to take into account not only the goals of consumers, but also their own

projects come with different tasks:
1) just to make money
or
2) to show their capabilities
or
3) to gain new experience

you have 3 limitations affecting the cost:
1) functionality
2) time
3) quality

list in full all that you have:
1) money
2) people
3) data
8) ... what other tools
from a more detailed understanding of what resources you have, the cost of the project depends, skillful resource management can: reduce the cost of the project or increase her

risk management is the most important skill of the person responsible for the project goal, create a detailed description of the list of tasks, and insert items related to the probabilities of loss into it, for each such "listing" separately

Answer 4

It all depends on the flow of money in the form of profitability of the project itself or investments.
In theory, you can first do it on freelancers. Then (if the money went) assemble a team (quantity and quality is proportional to the flow of money), set up automation of the joint development process, check everything after freelancers, refactor (redo), fix current problems and develop further.
