Development, support and refinement of PHP backends: custom scripts, business logic, APIs and integrations - in native PHP, not tied to a single framework. Legacy code rescue, security hardening and performance tuning with one accountable specialist.
Discuss ProjectPHP still powers a huge share of the web - and a lot of it is native PHP, not built on a single framework. I work directly with plain PHP: custom scripts, backends, business logic and integrations, whether they run on their own or sit alongside Laravel, Symfony, WordPress or a legacy codebase.
Many PHP requests are rescue and refinement: taking over unmaintained projects, cleaning up spaghetti code, upgrading old PHP versions, closing security holes and fixing slow queries. I also build new backends and APIs from scratch with a clean, understandable structure.
I work as an independent developer - you communicate directly with me, with clear estimates and full responsibility for the code and result.
PHP runs a large part of the web and hosting for it is cheap and everywhere. Native PHP is perfect for custom backends, integrations and rescuing existing projects. I write clear, secure PHP - and I'm just as happy fixing someone else's code as writing my own from scratch.
PHP works on almost any hosting, from cheap shared plans to dedicated servers - no exotic infrastructure required.
I work with plain PHP as well as Laravel, Symfony or WordPress - so the solution fits your project, not the other way around.
I take over projects other developers abandoned - reading unfamiliar code, documenting it and making it safe to change.
Prepared statements, input validation and secure auth by default - I close the holes that hurt real PHP projects.
No middlemen: you communicate directly with me - from the first estimate to launch and support.
I maintain the backend after launch: updates, fixes and new features as your project grows.
