Consulting

Have an idea for a web app? Let's hop on a call and discuss. I'll scope out your project and help you turn your idea into an actionable plan.

Already have an app running and want to take it to the next level? I'll do a structured analysis of the status quo: What do you have, where do you want to go and get you on your way to reach your goals!

Not 100% sure what you want? Benefit from my years of experience in various industries to guide you, bounce ideas off of and discuss options!

Development

I focus on modern but proven technologies and frameworks, that have been around for a while and won't go away anytime soon. This ensures your app will be state of the art while optimizing for maintainability and extendability in the long run. I don't chase trends, I build lasting products. Combining frontend and backend expertise, I deliver a modern, adaptable tech stack that fits the needs of your individual business.

  • Symfony/Laravel - rock solid backend frameworks
  • React/Vue - most widely-used frontend frameworks
  • Bootstrap or TailwindCSS as design frameworks
  • MySQL, Postgres or MongoDB as reliable database systems

To get you started, I'll set up all necessary tooling: from build systems and source code repositories to continuous delivery and deployment pipelines.

Infrastructure / Hosting

Your application needs a home. I'll set you up with your hoster of choice. Wherever you fall on the scale of affordability, performance and scalability. I've got you covered: AWS for everything managed for you out of the box. DigitalOcean for the budget conscious customer that still values managed services. Hetzner for hosting everything on your own VPS. Have special needs or an existing host? We'll figure it out together!

  • Server Setup, Updates, Security Best Practices
  • Containerized app deployments
  • Deployment Pipelines
  • Domain Hosting and DNS settings
  • SSL Certificates
  • Monitoring

You focus on growing your business, I'll make sure your IT runs smoothly.

Modernizing Legacy Applications

Got an application almost old enough to order its own drinks? Is it getting harder and harder to make changes or add features? Is spaghetti code overwhelming any developers you throw at it? Nobody wants to work with your code anymore?

  • I'll help put your app on a solid framework foundation, moving over functionality little by little until everything is fresh and quick again.
  • Figure out which features are heavily used and which features are no longer needed!
  • Want to move an old Wordpress site in plugin hell over to a modern CMS solution?
  • Got a vibe coded proof of concept app, that got some traction and are now looking to take it to the next level?

Make your business future-proof and ready to grow!

API Integrations / Automation / AI Tools

Modern applications interact with a wide variety of third-party software tools these days. Whether it be content management systems or e-mail marketing tools. Your apps will need to talk to an API to get the job done.

  • I implement all kinds of APIs, from simple REST, to SOAP, to advanced GraphQL, and integrate them into your application. I handle authentication, monitoring, automatic sync jobs and other requirements
  • Need an API of your own to allow your users' third-party applications to interact with your business?
  • Want to incorporate current LLMs or other AI technologies into your app?
