I'm a full-stack PHP developer with 10 years of experience building custom web applications, SaaS platforms, and CMS/eCommerce solutions — with deep expertise in Laravel, CodeIgniter, and WordPress, plus working knowledge of Spring Boot (Java) for backend integrations. I specialize in long-term, ongoing projects where clients need a developer who can own a codebase — not just complete a single task and disappear. What I build: Custom SaaS platforms and CRM/CMS systems in Laravel and CodeIgniter Scalable eCommerce solutions (WooCommerce, custom carts, payment gateway integrations) Custom WordPress themes and plugins (not template configuration — real custom code) IoT dashboards, live data dashboards, and home automation integrations REST API development and third-party integrations (CRMs, booking systems, payment gateways, social platforms) Why clients keep me long-term: Clean, maintainable, documented code — built to be handed off or extended by other developers later Direct communication, realistic timelines, and no disappearing after delivery — I provide ongoing support and maintenance I think in terms of your business outcome, not just the ticket — performance, SEO, and scalability are built in from day one, not bolted on after Git-based version control (GitHub/Bitbucket) and cloud deployment experience (AWS, Google Cloud) Tech stack: Laravel · CodeIgniter · Core PHP · WordPress · Elementor · Spring Boot (Java) · MySQL · REST APIs · HTML/CSS/JS/jQuery/Bootstrap · AWS · Google Cloud · Git I'd rather have one honest conversation about your project's real scope than oversell it upfront. If you need a developer who can stay with your product past the first release, let's talk. Thank you.
