IoT project — Arduino (C++) or ESP32 (MicroPython) — 180 US dollars/month for 20 hours/month

You are 16-21 years old. You don't need an ESP32. You don't need an Arduino. I will pay you to *learn* C/C++ on Arduino or MicroPython on ESP32. No. You are not dreaming. You don't need to have any experience but you must be very intelligent and solve 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 to search on Google for "Reddit Fixed-Price vs. Hourly Software Development" to educate yourself. Why must you be 16-21 years old? I have found that young programmers tend to be more eager to learn new technologies, learn more quickly, have more time for freelancing, and of course, are usually willing to work for less money than older programmers. Please do *not* bid on this project unless I invite you to bid. If you would like me to invite you to bid on this project, please follow the instructions below. ✻ EXCLUDED COUNTRIES AND REGIONS ✻ I am sorry but you are ineligible for this project if you live in... Africa (the entire continent), Asia, Canada, the Russian Federation, the USA, or Western Europe. ✻ MY FIRST CHOICE COUNTRIES ✻ Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, and Serbia. ✻ MY SECOND CHOICE COUNTRIES ✻ Albania, Kosovo, Mexico, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. ✻ MY THIRD CHOICE COUNTRIES ✻ Argentina, Belarus, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Moldova, Panama, Romania, Turkey, Ukraine, Uruguay, and Venezuela. ✻ MONEY ✻ 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 here in Los Angeles. 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. ✻ THE PROJECT ✻ You will help me build a consumer IoT product. ✻ HOW TO APPLY ✻ Please do *not* bid on this project the normal way. Instead, please paste * Arduino_or_ESP32_14_Oct_2020 * into your Freelancer profile so that when I search for * Arduino_or_ESP32_14_Oct_2020 * I will find your profile and probably invite you to bid on this project. If I were to invite you, you would be able to bid on this project "for free" (without spending one of your bids). 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. ✻ EXPERIENCE ✻ You do *not* need any experience. ✻ EXPLICITLY EXCLUDED COUNTRIES ✻ I am sorry but residents of the following countries are explicitly excluded... Bulgaria Croatia Estonia Greece Latvia Lithuania Poland Portugal Slovenia Spain ✻ 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.
