Freelance developers excel at REST client development in C/C++/Rust:
Language Expertise: Find freelancers skilled in your chosen language (C, C++, Rust) for efficient, performant code.
API Savvy: Look for experience with RESTful APIs to ensure understanding of requests, responses, and data formats (JSON, XML).
Flexibility & Cost-Effectiveness:
Project Scope: Hire freelancers for the entire project or specific tasks, ideal for well-defined projects or specialized needs.
Cost-Advantage: Freelancers can be more cost-effective than full-time employees, as you pay only for their project time.
Consider These:
Communication & Availability: Choose freelancers with communication styles and work hours that align with your needs.
Past Work & References: Review their portfolio and request references to assess experience and quality.
Downsides:
Project Management: You'll manage the project (deadlines, progress, quality).
Teamwork & Integration: For projects requiring existing system integration or developer collaboration, freelancers might not be ideal.
