About Stanislas
Senior Laravel/Vue.js Developer | Docker & CI/CD Expert
Tours, France - 5:23 pm local time
With 20+ years building web applications and 8+ years specializing in Laravel, Vue.js, and Docker, I've seen every architectural mistake, refactored countless legacy codebases, and built platforms that handle millions of users without breaking.
Most developers will build exactly what you ask for. I'll challenge your assumptions, identify issues before they become expensive problems, and deliver solutions that actually work long-term.
WHAT I DO BEST:
Full-Stack Development:
- Laravel (backend architecture, API design, performance optimization)
- Vue.js + Pinia (reactive frontends, state management, component architecture)
- Docker (containerized environments, deployment pipelines)
- MySQL, Redis (database design, caching strategies, search)
DevOps & Quality:
- CI/CD pipelines with GitLab (PHPUnit, PHPStan)
- Git workflow management (branching strategies, code review processes)
- Performance optimization (5-second load times down to sub-200ms)
- Security best practices (GDPR compliance, data protection, authentication)
Legacy Code Rescue:
- I've refactored more spaghetti code than I care to count
- Database migrations with zero downtime (200,000+ records migrated successfully)
- Modernizing old PHP applications to Laravel standards
- Cleaning up technical debt while adding new features
WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT
Experience that matters: I started coding in 1997. I've made every rookie mistake in web development, which means I can spot red flags in architecture, security, or performance before you waste months building the wrong thing.
Communication without jargon: I explain technical decisions in plain language. You'll understand what I'm building, why it matters, and what tradeoffs we're making.
Honest feedback: If your idea has a fatal flaw, I'll tell you. If there's a simpler solution, I'll propose it. I'm not here to blindly execute - I'm here to deliver results.
European timezone with flexibility: Based in France (CET/UTC+1), available for overlap with US East Coast and full coverage of European business hours.

WHO I WORK BEST WITH
You're a good fit if you need someone who can:
- Jump into an existing codebase and make sense of the chaos
- Build new features while refactoring the mess around them
- Identify architectural issues before they become production fires
- Communicate technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders
- Deliver quality work without constant hand-holding
You're NOT a good fit if you want:
- A yes-man who never questions requirements
- The absolute cheapest option (I'm good, not cheap)
- Someone to work 80-hour weeks on impossible deadlines
- Cutting corners to ship faster (it always backfires)
MY TYPICAL WORKFLOW
1. Discovery call: Understand your problem, not just your requirements
2. Proposal: Clear scope, timeline, and deliverables
3. Iterative development: Regular updates, no surprises
4. Code review: Clean, documented, maintainable
5. Knowledge transfer: You own the code, not just rent it
AVAILABILITY
30+ hours/week for the right projects
Response time: Within 2-4 hours during European business hours
Flexible for urgent issues and time-sensitive deployments
