PHP & Laravel
Development Services

Stateside Digitals provides PHP and Laravel development services, building business platforms, SaaS products, and APIs, and bringing older PHP applications up to something your team can safely work on again.

What Is Laravel
And Why It Matters For Your Business

Laravel is a PHP framework that arrives with most of what a business application needs already built: user accounts, permissions, database migrations, background jobs, scheduled tasks, email, and payment handling. PHP itself runs a large share of the web, and Laravel is what turned it into a structured modern framework rather than a pile of loose scripts.

For a business, that means paying for less of the work every application needs and more of the work that makes yours different. It also keeps costs predictable. Hosting is inexpensive and available everywhere, and the developer pool is deep enough that your project never depends on one specialist staying interested in it.

Less To Build From Scratch

Login, Payments, And Jobs Ready

The features every application needs come with the framework, so your budget goes toward what your competitors do not already have.

Wide Developer Pool

Easy To Staff Long Term

Laravel developers are plentiful and the conventions are standard, so bringing someone new onto your project is a normal hire, not a search.

Runs Almost Anywhere

Hosting Without Surprises

PHP is supported by practically every host at low cost, which keeps infrastructure predictable as your traffic and team grow.

01

SaaS And Subscription Apps

Multi-tenant products with plans, trials, and recurring billing, where subscription handling is part of the framework already.

03

Headless CMS Backends

Laravel serving content and data through an API to a separate front end, so editors get a proper admin and users get a fast site.

Rebuild Or Modernize
Your PHP Application?

Plenty of businesses run on PHP written years ago, sometimes in an old framework and sometimes in none at all. It usually keeps working right up until nobody wants to touch it, the hosting stops supporting the PHP version it needs, or a security patch turns out to be impossible to apply without breaking something else.

A full rebuild is rarely the right answer. More often we move the application into Laravel in pieces, putting new features in the new codebase while the old one keeps serving what it already handles well. That costs less than starting over, spreads the spend across quarters instead of one quote, and does not ask you to freeze development while it happens.

Our PHP & Laravel
Development Services
Stack

We build on current Laravel and PHP 8, using Eloquent for data and Horizon with Redis for queued work. Front ends run on Livewire when the interface is straightforward, or Inertia with Vue or React when it is not. Databases are MySQL or PostgreSQL, testing runs in Pest, and deployment goes through Forge or Vapor to AWS, or to infrastructure your team already runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is PHP still a serious choice today?

Modern PHP is a different language from its reputation, and Laravel is a genuinely well-designed framework. It powers a large share of commercial web applications. The fair criticism is not the language now, it is the quantity of poorly written PHP still live.

Can Laravel handle real traffic?

Can you take over an existing Laravel app?

Should our front end be Livewire or Vue and React?
