Systems and methods for creating software

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing one or more software applications that causes a computer system to execute a method that implements an online software development platform for creating software, the method comprising:

• receiving input from a customer, by a server running a software creating component, the input describing at least one aspect of a software program;
• determining, by the software creating component based on the input, existing code components that may be used to create the software program, the existing code components being stored in a code library accessible by the software creating component;
• determining, by the software creating component based on the user input and based on the existing code components that may be used to create the software program, new code components that must be developed for the software program;
• implementing an artificial learning algorithm comprising a learning algorithm that provides pricing;
• providing, by the software creating component to the user, a cost estimate for the software program based on the existing code components that may be used and based on the new code components that must be developed;
• generating, by the software creating program, a project schedule based at least in part on a project template, the project schedule including events related to the creation of the software program;
• managing, by the software creating program, the events related to the creation of the software program;
• sending, by the software creating program, a set of existing code requirement and a set of new code requirements to a team selector;
• and
• generating, by the software creating program, a project template based on the existing code components that may be used and based on the new code components that must be developed.
