For all those who have had bad experiences with Upwork, I wanted to create a list of additional resources that software developers can use to find freelance, nomadic and contract work. ## Contributing Please please please contribute to the list! If you have freelance work available or know someone who does, feel free to open a pull request to augment this list! Thank you for looking :) Good hunting! ## Differences between types | | Clients | Jobs | Agency | |----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Interaction with Clients | Your interaction is with clients directly, organization does little/no communication with clients | You interact with employers directly, organization does little/no communication with clients | Organization handles clients and just gives you work. You have little/no interaction with clients | | Control over working environment | Generally you can work however, using own tools, supplies, set own hours, etc | Employer controls how you work generally. Provides tools, sets hours, tasks, etc. | Agency might direct you on what tasks to do but you have flexibility on how to accomplish them | | Payment | Client pays you, but through the organization (which may takes its cut) | Employer pays you salary (withholding taxes) | Agency pays you | | Choice of Client or Project | Complete control of client/project | Complete control of job selection | Little/no choice of project or client | | Vetting/Interviews | Clients vets you | Companies vet you | Organization vets you, Client wouldn't really vet you individual | ## Other resources ### Aggregators - https://findwork.dev - http://jobscribe.com/ - https://www.hellobonsai.com/gig-list - https://www.folyo.me/ - http://www.lancelist.com/ - https://www.letsmakeapps.io/ - https://freelandr.com/ - https://remotephp.io - https://periodix.net - https://www.remotelyawesomejobs.com - https://www.nynedge.com/ - https://remotework.fyi/ - https://www.vollna.com/ - https://remotebond.com/ ### Bounties based and open source - https://gitcoin.co - https://bountysource.com - https://gitpay.me ### Remote jobs - [lukasz-madonawesome-remote-job](https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job#job-boards) – A curated list of awesome remote jobs and resources.
