This website. A Laravel rebuild of a hand-rolled PHP site with full data migration and zero data loss.

Live

In production

Migrated

From legacy PHP

THE CHALLENGE

My own business site was running on hand-rolled PHP 8.2 with a custom admin panel, contact form, and client tracking. It worked, but it positioned me as a freelance web designer rather than a systems architect.

THE SOLUTION

Rebuilt from scratch in Laravel with Filament admin, Tailwind CSS, and a proper three-plane architecture. Wrote a migration command that mapped every table from the old database into the new schema. The migration command stays in the codebase as a working demonstration of the legacy modernisation service.

THE RESULTS

You are looking at it. Full rebuild with data migration, serving as both a business site and a proof point for the migration service I sell.
