Ideas are worthless. Proper execution is priceless.
Most programmers (engineers, game devs, hobbyists, data scientists, etc.) will be asked to "help execute an idea" by a friend, a co-worker, or a stranger on an internet forum. The pitch usually goes something like this:
Hey <name>,
I've got this really cool idea for an app.
I can't pay you, but I'll give you a percentage of the company/profits if you build it.
Sound good?
-Enterpreneur
There's nothing natively wrong with this request, but this pitch isn't going to get any skilled developers on board. Very few ideas are novel/valuable, and ideas that are valuable are painstakingly difficult to execute and cannot be achieved without an organized team.
Provide some damn value. Provide funding for assets. Provide marketing or UI/UX expertise. Provide your own programming knowledge. Art skills. Architectural layouts. Industry specific knowledge.
