Project details
I specialize in upgrading legacy Laravel applications with precision and zero downtime.
You’ll receive a fully working, production-ready version of your app — modernized, optimized, and future-proof.
I’ll handle everything: PHP environment, composer conflicts, deprecated APIs, Blade syntax updates, route & config adjustments, and build tooling.
🎬 Process Step (How I work)
1️⃣ Environment setup — review your current Laravel & PHP versions, run local build.
2️⃣ Step-by-step migration — upgrade composer packages incrementally per Laravel version.
3️⃣ Refactor — fix deprecated functions, update routes, facades, Blade templates.
4️⃣ Front-end build — upgrade Laravel Mix → Vite or Webpack 6.
5️⃣ Testing — verify all routes, auth, API endpoints, and assets.
6️⃣ Deployment — configure SSL, PHP 8.4 runtime, domain & HTTPS access.
📦 Deliverables
✅ Updated Laravel framework (up to version 12)
✅ PHP version upgrade (up to 8.4)
✅ Updated composer & npm dependencies
✅ Working environment (.env, config, cache cleared)
✅ Verified app functionality (auth, dashboard, routes)
✅ Deployment instructions or full server setup (optional)

Oleksandr did an outstanding job on this phase of the project.
He fully configured our server environment, set up MySQL 8.0, restored the database, fixed composer issues, resolved dependency conflicts, and brought all Laravel 8 migrations and seeders to a clean working state.
SSH and Bitbucket integration were also repaired, including new keys, permissions, and proper repository access.
He eliminated multiple Laravel permission errors and delivered a stable, working environment ready for further development.
Highly professional, fast, and thorough, definitely recommend!

Oleksandr handled the first phase perfectly > from zero setup to a working Laravel environment.
He configured a new DigitalOcean server from scratch, installed PHP 7.4, restored the database, fixed Bitbucket access, and deployed the legacy Laravel build with PHP 7.1.
Communication was clear, every step transparent, and he delivered everything exactly as promised.
The project is now ready for the next phase of the Laravel 8+ upgrade.
Highly professional and reliable engineer, definitely recommend!

You will get JS application for CRUD Operation with Vue.js Composite API, Vue Router
Oleksandr delivered a clean, API-driven Vue 3 application with a strong engineering focus. The frontend was built using the Composition API and Vue Router, strictly aligned with the provided API endpoints.He implemented a scalable CRUD architecture with proper routing, state handling, and validation, and also delivered reusable components for fast CSV upload and bulk data ingestion. The work was purely technical infrastructure, API integration, and maintainable frontend architecture.

Job Success
Kiev, Ukraine - 5:57 am local time
My work usually involves an existing application, complex backend logic, third-party APIs, infrastructure, or automation that needs an experienced engineer to understand the system quickly and deliver a reliable solution.
I work across:
• PHP, Laravel, and MySQL backend systems
• Python and FastAPI services
• REST APIs, webhooks, OAuth, and third-party integrations
• Node.js, TypeScript, Puppeteer, and browser automation
• Selenium and multi-session automation workflows
• AWS, DigitalOcean, Linux, Nginx, Cloudflare, DNS, and SSL
• SaaS architecture, multi-tenant systems, and backend orchestration
• Stripe, payment, shipping, CRM, and transactional email integrations
• WordPress and WooCommerce custom development and stabilization
• Legacy application debugging, migrations, and production recovery
Recent projects include production FastAPI services with RBAC and API workflows, Python/Selenium multi-session browser automation, Node.js/Puppeteer data and PDF workflows, Laravel/Vue business applications, API integrations, and migration of live e-commerce infrastructure to AWS.
I am often brought into projects where the application already exists but the architecture, integration, deployment, or production stability has become difficult to manage.
My approach is straightforward:
• understand the existing system
• identify the real technical problem
• define a practical implementation plan
• build or fix the required components
• test the critical workflows
• document the solution
