Hey. I'm John, a freelance PHP developer based in Newcastle.

With over 15 years of experience, I've worked as both a full-time developer and freelancer. I've architected, built and maintained systems at various scales - from startup MVPs to enterprise applications handling millions of requests.

My core stack is PHP, Laravel, Vue.js, WordPress, Astro and Tailwind CSS - but I'm pragmatic enough to use whatever's right for the job.

I'm as comfortable jumping into legacy codebases as I am building greenfield applications. I value clean, maintainable code but prioritise delivering business value through pragmatic solutions.

Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, I work with clients across the North East and UK. Whether you need a custom web application, WordPress site, or ongoing development support - I can help.
