For some time now we have been looking for someone who can help us
(Project Beauty [1]) out with some LUA programming.
At the heart of our Dutch social enterprise is a survey that is hosted
on the Alchemer platform [2].
Alchemer uses LUA to style PDF summary files, but only offers their
LUA expertise to Enterprise customers.
Hence: we are stuck.
We have already tried two programmers on the Fiverr platform to see if
they could do some programming for us, but the results were
disappointing.
That is why finally we decided our only option now left is to just go
to the source: Lua Lab. 😊
Does someone maybe know where we could find some help from someone who
could do some LUA-scripting for us, to be used on the Alchemer
platform??
It would so much help us!
I very much hope to hear from you,
I read your plea for help with increasing fascination. You do not
specify what help
you need. In fact this lack of specificity may be at the root of your
problem. As you
know, humankind is divided into two subspecies, nerds and marketroids.
Each
has difficulty communicating with the other. Nerds are usually good with
software. They enjoy the beauty of Lua, for example. And nerds like
myself know nothing about business, money, law or politics; and little
about other human beings. It is evident that you need the services of a
friendly nerd. But the nerd can do nothing for you without painfully
specific detail of what you want and it may be that your previous
disappointments were caused by an inability to utter your wishes in
language intelligible to him/her/it.
Beauty is a word with a wide range of meanings. I have heard it
suggested that human beauty is bound up with symmetry, because
deviations from the symmetrical may be an indicator of genetic defects,
and therefore of unsuitable partners. And I have to presume that you
have read Plato's Symposium.
I suspect that your nerd is going to need some acquaintance with the
libraries used by Alchemer's web interface.
Best of luck!
