Hello all,

 

I need someone that can help me create a relatively simple web based application to demonstrate a certain science concept.

 

In general, the app should present a physical situation (like oscillation, for example) and adjust the movements according to preset formulas. I will provide all formulas, I just need someone who knows how to apply this to a fully functional web app.

 

I can't pay, but I you *WILL* recieve full credit on the site this will be presented on. We can sort details in private conversation.

 

Contact me as a reply here, or by pvtmsg.

 

PLEASE -- only only only if you know what you're doing. I know what I want, and I know it's not hard, I'm a programmer myself (I do php/mysql) but I don't have the skill to do an online app that changes client-side (java? ruby? not sure).

 

It's going to be worth it, I promise.. it's not your average, normal app. Trust me, it'll be fun.

Your best bet is probably Flash.

 

Flash is simple to use. Its programming language, ActionScript, is identical to JavaScript in most respects. If you know JavaScript you know ActionScript.

 

Furthermore, there's plenty of open source tools for making Flash programs:

You can also download the Flex compiler free from Adobe's web site, although there are open source alternatives available:

I'd really suggest giving it a go on your own. It's a lot of fun, at least for me

Oh, I agree, it *IS* a lot of fun, but I don't have time for this project to experiment, that's why I needed the help. I'll check out the tools, though.. I used to do some basic flash stuff but nothing too biggie.

 

p.s: Thanks !

Okay, I can't do this myself, not if I want it to look better (and I do).

 

Anyone knows how to program a good, short, relatively simple Flash program?

 

Please help!

I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of posting a little blurb about this over in the general forum. It really sounds like a great project for somebody to leap on. I wish I weren't so busy at the moment or I'd jump at it myself.

I might be available to help with debugging and troubleshooting if you need -- I teach Flash/AS classes at my school. I'm just abysmally short on time at the moment, I'm afraid.

 

Just as a suggestion, if you get multiple people interested in this, maybe you could try it as a public project, like a SourceForge kind of thing, only maybe we could do it through SFN somehow. I could talk to the admins about setting up a message area and maybe a little storage space if you're interested.

are you looking for a programmer or help. how much will it cost?
