About
A Laravel developer who builds tools for other developers
AxVi
Laravel developer, 7 years
I have been building with Laravel for seven years: APIs, admin panels, queues, and the infrastructure that keeps them running. Before web development I spent many years in industrial automation, where software has to work every day with nobody watching. I still build things that way.
On the side I make developer tools. WSBro is a Pusher-compatible WebSocket server written in Go. Under the pen name Vitaly Ax I wrote two books for Laravel developers: one on Rust, one on building web apps with Loco.
