Best option: find someone you worked with before

Second best option: friends of friends

Last resort: some random developer who falls in love with your idea. Just don't sign any paperwork until 1-3 months after you start working together (if so, read https://medium.com/@colunchers/founder-vesting-c214e86c59b0).

Great article! Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, finding someone I have worked with before and I think would be a good fit, isn't an option. I've been asking friends of friends for referrals and starting to look into networking with different developer groups. For now I'm outsourcing a prototype, and hoping I can find someone before I put together an MVP so the developer doesn't inherit someone else's code.
