We've built a platform that allows you to make web apps, games, mobile apps etc. whilst working from the comfort of your own home, with teammates, on a fair and equitable profit-sharing scheme (video overview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7ooZGyqflY)
We just launched our Kanban feature which we're hoping will allow projects on the platform to increase their productivity ten-fold, so thought we'd do a big launch and shout about it a little. Would appreciate an upvote on https://producthunt.com if you have the time.
Anyway, I'm floating about all day if you have any questions or feedback.

With everything going on in the world, I know a lot of people are now stuck at home, unable to leave. As someone who works from home, it's not an issue for me, but I know there are those that will struggle.
Because of this, I thought I'd open up my web platform, https://crowdsourcer.io, that allows people to create projects together remotely and rev-share in a fair way. We're going to be releasing some premium features over the next week or so but I've decided to keep them free until the world goes back to normal. I'll also automatically apply, to all projects, a reduction to processing fees if you use our selling tools (if you sell outside of the platform then any payment processing is done at cost price anyway so it's about as good a deal as possible).
I hope this encourages some of you to not miss the opportunity to get cracking on any software-related ideas you've been meaning to work on, whilst you're stuck at home.
If you have any questions about how it works or how to use it I'm active on Reddit, so feel free to leave a comment or message me.
It's quite cool because it's not really been done before. So as the value of users' contribution grows, tracked by points like sprint/story points and whatnot the proportion of the share of the profits you get increases. We provide all the tools to distribute the money to everyone in a project + project management tools, a peer review system etc. etc.
The aim is to enable developers, programmers and engineers (etc.) to create equitable and autonomous projects, keeping money, investors and banks out of your projects so you can focus on collaborating and building without having to quit your job, hire a team, compromise on ambition, deal with investors/investment nor piss around with payment processing and regulations.

Hope that goes some way to explaining it. Let me know if it needs more clarification.
If you ever do decide to post a project on there, get in touch and I can try to help out where I can.
1. You don't have to do a massive marketing campaign to raise finance, because you're not raising finance.
2. It's not an everything or nothing roll of the dice.
3. You don't even need to raise finance - the investment of expertise and time by you and your contributors should remove most (most) of what you'd normally spend money on.
4. You don't have take on any financial risk - the risk comes to you and your fellow contributors in the form of wasted time if your product flops.
5. You get help actually building your product - from contributors who you find or find you.
6. It creates an equitable payment structure where you and controbutors get paid based on how much everyone contributes.
Hope this helps to explain the concept a little better.
There's a video here which explains it well I think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHHvJzUGpCM
