(Paid) System Dev Assistance

Hello, I am developing a new game and would like to build my own game system in foundry vtt. I'm not very competent with JS, and am unfamiliar with the functionality of Foundry VTT. I do have some experience scripting and whatnot, but my learning process will require copious amounts of trial and error. I was hoping to skip the painful learning curve and pay someone to teach/help me with my system. I'm just not sure how much this runs, and was wondering if this is the kind of thing I can find people for? Thank you in advance for all replies

Additional Information Unique Gameplay Mechanics: This game will not be quite like any game I have played before, so it will require some unique solutions Aesthetics: Eventually I want the foundry module to have its own theme and feel. I plan on commissioning music and artwork for the books I'm designing. This foundry module will require me to spend a lot of time on the aesthetics and feel of the system in foundry. I want it to be truly high quality, no matter how long it takes me. Purpose: I plan on releasing a game and attempting to kickstart it later down the road. Even if the kickstarter fails I will continue to pay as much as I can out of pocket to see it completed entirely (even if it takes a bunch of time and saving up). This game is intended to be free. The adventures, the core pdf's, all of it. Not like PF2e free where its the only the rules, I'm going full free. Eventually I want to make something like D&D beyond or Pathfinder nexus and make it completely free. Everything I get off of this will be through donations. I also want to commission top down 2d tokens for all the creatures in the creature book and give those out for free as well. This is going to take some time to see the whole way through (I am aware of that). Either way, I don't want to give up. I want to make a game that anyone can enjoy. Specifics: I want to design a custom gui for the foundry vtt module. I'm including all the books in the system as well, for ease of access. I'll have other projects towards this end (such as the online books and environment). I want to make my online stuff synchronize with foundry if the user choses too (much like the world anvil module). Automation for the foundry vtt system is a must that I plan on spending a lot of time on for ease of use. Anyone who can help me towards any of these ends would be awesome! I appreciate any responses I receive in advance Note: I'm aiming for most basic functionality being available before February (I plan on starting some pre-playtests of the game to prepare to kickstart before mid-summer 2024. I need basic functionality for foundry vtt completed by then so I can get the feedback I need from players of the pre-playtest)

depending on the cost of something like this I might be interested as well. I have a lot of dev experience but would love to understand foundry more and how i'm supposed to dev against it.

I am developing a new game TTRpG that will go into playtesting in January. I want the game supported on foundry. Curious cost for an expert to do this for our game. Am I in the right place?
