Laravel Entwicklung

Laravel Developer Switzerland
Clean. Scalable. Maintainable.

Is your legacy code becoming a liability? Do you need a modern architecture that grows with you? I develop Laravel applications that still work in 5 years.

16+ Years PHP Experience Laravel Since Version 4 Enterprise-ready

The Problem

Sound Familiar?

Legacy Code

Your application still runs on PHP 5 or old Laravel. Every update becomes a risk.

Performance Problems

The application gets slower the more users you have. Scaling? Not happening.

Developer Gone

The original developer is no longer around. Nobody understands the code.

Spaghetti Code

Every new feature takes forever and breaks something else. No tests, no structure.

Laravel Done Right

From new development to legacy rescue.

Vincent Kilchherr - Laravel Entwickler Schweiz

Laravel Since the Beginning

I am Vincent Kilchherr – I have been developing with Laravel since version 4 and have watched the framework grow.

I know what works and what does not. No experimental tinkering – but proven patterns, clean architecture and code that other developers can understand too.

  • Laravel projects from 10 to 100,000+ users
  • API design, queue systems, event-driven architecture
  • Testing, CI/CD, code reviews
New Development

Tailor-Made Laravel Application

You need a new web application? I build it from scratch – with clean architecture that is still maintainable years from now.

  • Domain-Driven Design – structure that fits the business
  • API-First – flexible for web, mobile, integrations
  • Test Coverage – automated tests for quality assurance
  • Documentation – so other developers can follow along

Legacy Modernisation

Rescuing Old Code

Your application has grown and nobody dares change anything anymore? I modernise step by step – no big bang.

  • Strangler Pattern – modernise step by step
  • PHP Upgrade – from PHP 5/7 to PHP 8.x
  • Laravel Upgrade – older versions to current LTS
  • Refactoring – spaghetti code into maintainable structure

API & Integration

Backend for Your Applications

You need a robust backend for your mobile app, your SPA or your integrations? Laravel is perfect for that.

  • RESTful APIs – cleanly documented with OpenAPI/Swagger
  • GraphQL – when REST is not enough
  • Webhooks – send events to external systems
  • OAuth / JWT – secure authentication

Our old application was a nightmare – PHP 5.6, no tests, nobody dared change anything. Vincent migrated it step by step to Laravel 10 without us being offline for a day. Now we can finally develop features again instead of just fighting fires.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Laravel Development

Laravel is ideal for most web applications: fast development, excellent documentation, huge community. For very complex enterprise applications Symfony may be a better fit – we discuss that in the initial meeting.

Yes, that is one of my focus areas. I modernise step by step with the Strangler Pattern – your application keeps running while we renew it piece by piece.

An MVP is often feasible in 6-8 weeks. Complex applications with many integrations take 3-6 months. After the initial meeting I give you a realistic estimate.

Yes, gladly. I can reinforce your team as an external senior developer, do code reviews or guide architecture decisions.

That depends on the scope. After the initial meeting you receive a fixed-price offer or we work on an hourly basis – whichever makes more sense for your project.

I offer maintenance contracts with regular updates, security patches and a support contingent. Your application stays secure and up to date.
