FAQ
Can you help me upgrade an older application to work with PHP 8?
Yes! I can inspect your code, identify deprecated functions or syntax errors, and update the codebase so it runs seamlessly on modern PHP versions.
Do you work on custom procedural PHP applications without a framework?
Absolutely. I have years of experience working with custom-built legacy systems, native PHP scripts, and custom MVC frameworks.
What do you need from me to get started?
I will need a clear description of the issue or feature request, temporary access to your code repository or hosting environment (cPanel/SSH/FTP), and a staging environment if available.
