About searching freelancers, programmers, consultants with the DevExpress expertise and XAF in particular

I have recently come back from a 3 week vacation on Crete and I feel in a good mood for blogging. BTW, in my first-time experience, this place has a plethora of sights for both active and cultural holidays, crystal clean sea, tasty traditional and sea food, fruits plus Greeks being very nice people all with a funny Tolis-like accent:-) - it will be the reason for my pleasant memories again and again.

Today, I want to cover a question which I periodically receive privately or in the Support Center:

"Can you recommend anyone that might be interested in working as a consultant/programmer to help us develop our XAF app?"

Well, there are surely many developers that can qualify for this, and the first and probably the best way of locating XAF freelancers (as well as freelancers for any other technology) is using specialized services like https://www.upwork.com and https://www.freelancer.com. I just picked the two ones from the top of my head, so there may be alternatives and you must learn more on them first. For instance, check these example queries:

DevExpress XAF Training class in Germany (October 7-11)

I'd like to repost this good news for people who want to become an XAF expert in a few days, literally.

"The next class is a European event: October 7-11 for XAF, in a new location in Germany. I will teach this myself, and the class will be in English language as usual - important to stress in Europe!

 XAF Training Event (Europe)
This class covers the eXpressApp Framework as completely as possible in the timeframe. The target is to enable you to create your own XAF based applications, and to answer any questions you have. XAF is a large product that includes many modules and targets two different platforms - the one-week timeframe of the course is the only limit on the depth of coverage!"
