Laravel Development

Custom Laravel development: web applications, APIs, SaaS and admin panels. Hire Laravel developers for new builds or legacy codebases.

Laravel architecture illustration — web app, API, queue and database layers

If you need a custom web application, an API, or a SaaS product built on Laravel — or an existing Laravel codebase that needs a responsible owner — this page describes how we work and what you can expect.

Laravel 12/13 on PHP 8.3 is our primary backend stack. Most of what we ship runs on it: this website's CMS, the VetSpace API, and the DigiPulse marketing platform among them.

What we build with Laravel

  • SaaS platforms and subscription products — DigiPulse is a Laravel application with multi-channel publishing, scheduling and analytics.
  • REST and GraphQL APIs for SPAs and mobile clients — VetSpace's backend serves a Nuxt frontend and mobile apps from one Laravel API.
  • Admin panels and internal tools — we use Filament for back-office UI, as in this site's own CMS.
  • E-commerce backends, booking systems and business tools that don't fit off-the-shelf software.

How a typical request is handled

The request cycle stays fast because heavy work is queued — emails, imports, AI calls, publishing:

Laravel request flow: HTTP request, app, queue, worker

How we work

We follow Laravel conventions instead of fighting them: Eloquent where it helps, the query builder where it's measurably faster, queues for anything slow, events and listeners to keep controllers thin. Code is covered by PHPUnit tests, formatted with Pint, analysed with Larastan and reviewed before merge.

class PublishScheduledPost implements ShouldQueue
{
    public int $tries = 3;
    public array $backoff = [30, 120, 600];

    public function handle(ChannelPublisher $publisher): void
    {
        $result = $publisher->publish($this->post);

        $this->post->update([
            'status'       => PostStatus::Published,
            'published_at' => now(),
        ]);
    }
}

A real pattern from DigiPulse: publishing is a queued job with retries, so a slow provider never blocks a user.

Taking over existing Laravel projects

A large part of our work is inheriting codebases built by other teams. We start with an audit — dependency freshness, test coverage, N+1 queries, security issues — then stabilize and extend incrementally, without stopping production.

Tell us about your project and we'll give you an honest assessment of scope, stack and timeline.
