Laravel Development Services

A single major version jump — say, Laravel 9 to 10 — typically takes one to two weeks depending on test coverage, custom packages, and how much deprecated API usage is buried in the codebase. Multi-version jumps like 5.x to 11 are phased over four to eight weeks, with intermediate staging deployments at each major version so regressions surface early rather than all at once.

Livewire makes sense if your team is PHP-first and wants reactive UI without writing JavaScript. Inertia fits better when you want a full React or Vue SPA experience but don't want the overhead of a separate API. We look at your team's actual skills and your product requirements before recommending either — not just what's trending.

Migrate when frontend performance, SEO requirements, or hiring genuinely demands a JavaScript-first stack. If your Laravel app already works primarily as an API and your frontend is React via Inertia, that migration is incremental anyway. We don't push Next.js because it's popular — only when PHP is a measurable bottleneck with data to back it up.

Yes. We identify the business logic buried in controllers and Blade views, extract it into service classes, and expose it through versioned REST or GraphQL endpoints. The existing Blade frontend keeps working throughout, so your users don't see any downtime or feature freeze while the work happens underneath.

We offer monthly retainers covering security patches, dependency updates, performance monitoring, and a set number of feature development hours. Retainers start at $2,000/month. Every client gets a dedicated Slack channel and same-day response on anything critical.

We handle migrations from CodeIgniter, Symfony, CakePHP, and custom PHP frameworks to Laravel. It starts with the same codebase audit. We map existing routes, database schemas, and business logic, then rebuild incrementally in Laravel with test coverage added at each stage.
