Full-stack build

Next.js applications, WordPress estates, integrations between stubborn systems. Nineteen years of shipping means the architecture conversation and the pull request come from the same person.

the work — manifest

  • w-01

    Modern web builds — Next.js, React, edge deployment, the vitals green from the first commit.

  • w-02

    WordPress at production grade: bespoke themes, hardened plugins, WooCommerce, hosting ops.

  • w-03

    SaaS engineered end to end — four products built and shipped, spec to store.

  • w-04

    Integrations and internal tools: CRMs, feeds, dashboards, the glue nobody else wants to own.

  • w-05

    Rescue work — inherited codebases stabilised, documented, and made shippable again.

method — how it runs

01

scope against reality

the estimate comes from the person who'll write the code — which is why it survives contact with the codebase.

02

phase with gates

fixed-scope phases, each ending in something running that you can reject. No six-month reveals.

03

instrument as it ships

vitals, error tracking, and measurement land with the feature, not after the incident.

04

hand over like an adult

documentation a stranger can operate from, repos in your name, and no hostage infrastructure.
