PHP developer. Architect for maintainable code.

I've been building web applications with PHP for over 25 years — from WordPress plugins to complex Symfony systems. On the side, I develop open-source tools like PhpCodeArcheology, which analyses codebases for architecture and maintainability. Currently deep into AI-assisted development.
