Ya but your philosophy cost you $47k for work that could have been done in 2 weeks by a competent developer...

  Philosophy, costs, timelines, and justifications aside - I’m curious if, in your experience, many “competent” developers have this sort of design experience in their wheelhouse?

  I'm sure there's a dev who could have done the same work faster and cheaper, but they're extremely hard to find. Everyone wants to hire a frontend dev who can design and code. They'd either be outside my budget or they'll only take jobs from people with a personal recommendation. There's also the problem that until you hire them, you can't distinguish between a talented developer and someone just pretending to be one. I might go through 10 expensive developers over a year before I find one who's actually capable of delivering the project in two weeks. Do you have a recommendation for where I'd find someone who can do this job in two weeks to the same level of quality?

    At least then you'd have that person for the future.
