Client Satisfaction

Laravel excels at API development. Built-in authentication with Sanctum, API resources for clean responses, rate limiting, and all the middleware you need.

I build APIs that are properly versioned, documented with OpenAPI, and designed to evolve without breaking existing clients.

Whether you need an API for a mobile app, a React SPA, or integration with external services, the patterns are well-established and the code is maintainable.

Why Work With Me

Deep Stack Expertise

Years of production experience with Laravel and REST API. Not just theory.

Weekly Progress

Working demos every week. See progress as we build, not after 3 months.

Production-Ready Code

Tests, documentation, deploy scripts. Maintainable code, not technical debt.

Direct Communication

No project managers. You talk directly to the person writing the code.

What Clients Say

"One of the things most organisations struggle with is finding that 'bridge' type of resource — someone who can speak product, understand the business, and shape the technical flow for today while keeping an eye firmly on tomorrow. Stu, on multiple occasions where I've hired him over the last 15 years, has been that guy. His consultative skills — listening, challenging back, and shaping technical solutions around what he hears — are second to none. His time management and expectation-setting are spot on too. He'll tell you where the risks are in the new and the unknown, so you're never left biting your nails in the dark. He lives and breathes tech, early-adopts just for the hell of it, but never oversells anything until it's genuinely safe and ready to use."

Technical Delivery, Sepura

"Stu delivers. Quick turnaround, high quality, no fuss. He embeds into the team properly - standups, Teams, the lot - and he's been ahead of the curve on AI tooling, both in the apps we build and in how he works. Reliable, fast, and genuinely good to work with."

Product Owner,

"My previous developer wasn't delivering. Stu took over, didn't waste time on the mess - just rebuilt what mattered. Within a few months I had payments working and a real path to launch. No drama, just progress."
