Manu T.

I’m an Australian-based Full-Stack Developer with 17+ years of experience building websites, web applications and custom business software. My core expertise is **PHP, Laravel, React, TypeScript, Node.js, MySQL and WordPress**. I work across both backend and frontend development and enjoy building practical systems that solve real business problems. Over the years, I’ve worked on a variety of projects for businesses in Australia and overseas, including **booking systems, business management platforms, admin portals, customer management systems, dashboards, APIs, eCommerce websites and custom workflow applications**. I’m particularly interested in custom software development where a business has a process that is currently manual, complicated or spread across different tools, and needs to be brought together into one easy-to-use system. ### What I can help with • Laravel & PHP application development • React & TypeScript frontend development • Node.js applications and services • REST APIs and third-party API integrations • MySQL database design and development • Admin panels and business management systems • Booking, scheduling and workflow systems • User authentication, roles and permissions • Dashboards, reports and data management • WordPress, WooCommerce and Elementor • AWS, hosting and production deployment • Existing application maintenance, bug fixing and improvements I’m comfortable joining an existing project and understanding the current codebase, fixing problems and adding new functionality, or starting a completely new application from the ground up. For larger applications, I focus on creating a clean structure that can grow with the business rather than simply making something that works for the first version. I also pay attention to security, database design, performance, user permissions and maintainability. Some of the systems I’ve worked on involve multiple users, different access levels, bookings, customer records, documents, notifications, APIs and business workflows. This experience allows me to understand not only the technical side of development, but also how the software needs to work from a business user's perspective. I’m based in **Australia** and can work comfortably with Australian businesses and time zones. I value clear communication, understanding the requirements properly before starting, and keeping clients updated throughout the project. Whether you need a new Laravel/React application, improvements to an existing system, an API integration, a WordPress/WooCommerce project, or help
