Web Development

Hire Laravel Developers

Laravel developers build web applications and APIs in PHP, from customer portals and booking systems to SaaS products with subscriptions.

The role

What Laravel developers do

Laravel ships with most of what a web app needs: routing, authentication, queues, email, scheduling and database tools. A Laravel developer uses those instead of reinventing them, and often pairs Laravel with Livewire, Inertia, Vue or React for the interface.

Typical deliverables

  • A Laravel web app or API
  • Admin panels with Filament or Nova
  • Subscriptions and billing with Cashier
  • Queued jobs and scheduled tasks
  • Upgrades to a current Laravel version

Tools you will see

  • Laravel
  • PHP 8
  • Eloquent
  • Livewire or Inertia
  • Filament
  • MySQL or PostgreSQL
  • Pest or PHPUnit

Choosing

How to choose Laravel developers

What to look for

  • Laravel's built-in features used rather than custom replacements.
  • Eloquent queries that do not load the same data over and over.
  • Tests written with Pest or PHPUnit.
  • Upgrade experience if your app is behind.

Questions to ask

  1. 1Livewire, Inertia or a separate front end: which would you pick for us?
  2. 2How do you find and fix slow queries in Laravel?
  3. 3How would you handle subscriptions and billing?
  4. 4How do you approach a Laravel version upgrade?

Planning

Before you post the job

Front-end approach

Livewire keeps everything in PHP; Inertia pairs Laravel with Vue or React. Agree early, because it shapes the whole build.

What drives cost

The number of roles and features, billing, admin needs, integrations and any upgrade work.
