Frequently Asked Questions
Can you build a REST API for my React Native / Next.js app? +
Yes — this is my most common project type. I build the Laravel API and also know the frontend, so integration is seamless.
Do you work with legacy CodeIgniter projects? +
Yes. I maintain and extend existing CodeIgniter 3/4 projects, and can also help migrate to Laravel if needed.
Can you set up hosting and deployment? +
Yes — I handle full deployment: VPS, cPanel shared hosting, domain, SSL, and server configuration.
Do you work with US clients remotely? +
Yes. I've built backends for US, EU, and Middle East clients. Available for async collaboration and EST/PST video calls.
