About this gig
Modernise your legacy PHP system without breaking your business
Is your current PHP application difficult to maintain, insecure, or limiting your growth? Many older systems built with custom PHP, CodeIgniter, or outdated frameworks become expensive to manage and hard to scale.
I help businesses safely transform legacy applications into modern, structured platforms using Laravel, without disrupting your live system.
With 10+ years of PHP development experience across startups and production systems, I use a proven side-by-side migration approach. This means your old system keeps running while new features are rebuilt gradually, reducing risk and avoiding downtime.
What you can expect:
- Full codebase review and migration strategy
- Secure refactoring of legacy PHP into modern architecture
- Database optimisation and API readiness
- Improved performance, maintainability and scalability
- Support for integrations, payments and third-party services
- Oxwall / SkaDate Migration
Whether you are planning a full rebuild or gradual upgrade, I will guide you through the process in clear, non-technical terms.
Please contact me before placing an order so we can align on your system and goals.

Proven software engineer, BSc (IT) graduate, MSc in International Business, Oxwall fanatic, and a man of a few other incongruous talents. Since 2012, I’ve supported 500+ businesses through Oxwall and SkaDate development, delivering fast, scalable solutions using WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify, Laravel, and React Native. I plan to continue until a few days before my ultimate fate: cryogenic preservation. If resurrected, I’ll most likely go back to programming.

FAQ
Do I need to understand Laravel or technical details?
No. I explain everything in simple terms and guide you through decisions based on your business goals.
Will my current website or system go offline during migration?
No. I use a safe, phased approach where your existing system continues running while improvements are made.
Can you work with very old or undocumented PHP code?
Yes. I start with a structured audit to understand how your system works before making any changes.
Can I upgrade gradually instead of rebuilding everything?
Yes. Most projects are done in phases so you can improve your system step by step without large upfront cost.
Will my data (users, orders, content) be preserved?
Yes. Data is carefully mapped and migrated to ensure nothing is lost or broken.
Can you add new features during the migration?
Yes. Many clients use this opportunity to introduce new functionality, APIs or integrations.
Is this suitable for SaaS or business platforms?
Yes. This service is ideal for SaaS products, internal tools, marketplaces and custom web applications.
What if I am not sure what my system needs yet?
That is perfectly fine. The audit package is designed to give you clarity before committing to development.
