Discussion on: Why isn't there Tinder for coding partners?

Awesome post, James!

I really think you're onto something here...

I've had a similar idea about an app for matching up folks to play music together. My idea kinda hinged on pairing up people that are in the same area geographically, which I believe must be how Tinder works granted I don't truly know (I've been with the same person for 15 years so luckily missed out on online dating, haha).

With finding a coding partner, I don't think you'd need to pair people up that are physically nearby each other, so that's kind of cool that you wouldn't have to worry about that. Still, it'd be cool to give folks the option to filter to people that are near them in case they want to meet up and work on a project in person together.

Anyway, good idea. If you decide to move forward with creating something like this, I hope you'll share it with us!
