Well , I currently have the project of 2 people. The first Idea is to bring education to the user, but after weeks the other one, who is the designer, just become more and more obsess about "being big" already. So he kind of created more ideas for me, as front-end and back-end dev, to do. I am now become less interest on this project anymore. Should I end this project with him or keep going?

1) Is this a paid project?
2) What's your arrangement in the scope of work?

  1. It's not a paid project. It's like a personal project. And yeah I do for free and for myself of course.
  2. The other one do not have any knowledge about coding so I do all the code, he only know how to design and work with photoshop. This is his idea and he kind of have a plan.

Then you have answered your question as that is a passion/side project/volunteer. Which is subjected to your interest in continuing but at a reduced scope or just drop it.

For me personally, I would ask if there is anyway to monetize it now. So to get paid for both you and your friend's effort's. If not I won't do it, as I'm not coming in as a volunteer work.

Which I do volunteer in a lot of things. but I do it to build relationships and help a cause without getting paid most of the time.
