Practical Technology Advice
We recommend PHP, or another stack, based on what your project needs, and explain the trade-offs.
Ludych builds and maintains PHP web applications for startups, businesses and larger organizations, from customer portals and ecommerce stores to APIs, integrations and the modernization of older PHP code.
Many organizations already depend on a PHP application, and many new projects are database-driven sites, portals or business systems where PHP is a practical fit. Ludych helps you build new, extend what you run today, connect it to your other systems and keep it maintained. We agree scope, ownership and support with you before work starts.
Six service areas that cover how PHP applications are built, connected, modernized and maintained.
Web applications built around your workflows, such as portals, booking tools, learning platforms, marketplaces and internal business systems. We use Laravel where a framework suits the project.
REST APIs that let your PHP application exchange data with front ends, mobile apps, payment services and the business systems you already run, with authentication planned from the start.
Online stores built on Magento, WooCommerce or Shopify, with catalog, checkout and payment integrations chosen to fit how you sell.
Content management built on WordPress or Drupal, with custom templates and modules so your team can publish and update content without developer help.
Support for existing PHP applications: bug fixes, version updates, code cleanup and security updates, plus staged modernization of older code when a full rebuild is not the right answer.
Deployment of PHP applications to cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, with environments, backups and monitoring set up as agreed in scope.
Examples of the PHP projects Ludych scopes and builds, from ecommerce stores to business systems.
PHP covers a wide range of web projects. These are the application types we most often scope with clients.
Each project starts with your users and workflows, then we choose the framework or platform that fits.

Internal tools for approvals, document handling and task tracking that replace spreadsheets and email chains.
Ecommerce stores, booking engines and account portals designed around what your customers need to do.
Connectors and APIs that move data between your PHP application, your databases and third-party services.
Larger internal systems, such as asset or supply chain tools, built in stages with roles and reporting defined early.
Dashboards and reports that bring application data together, connected to BI tools such as Power BI where needed.
Engineering, QA and project management working together on your PHP application.
If you already have a product team or a PHP application in production, Ludych can add PHP developers to your project. Team structure and terms are agreed for each engagement.
Interfaces planned around how your users work.
Coding standards and reviews that keep applications easy to extend.
Clear progress reports and open issues shared as work moves.
PHP suits database-driven web applications such as customer and service portals, ecommerce stores, booking systems, learning platforms, marketplaces, community sites and content-managed websites. We also build APIs and integrations around them.
PHP is open source, so the language itself has no license fee, and hosting for it is widely available. It also has a mature ecosystem, including Laravel for custom applications and WordPress, Drupal, Magento and WooCommerce for content and commerce.
Ludych is a full-stack digital agency, so engineering, design, QA and project management work on your application together. We document scope up front, keep architecture simple and plan testing from the start.
It depends on the project. Laravel is a common choice for custom applications and APIs. For content-heavy sites, WordPress or Drupal may fit better. We recommend an option after we understand your requirements and your team.
We build web applications with responsive layouts, and we test them on the browsers and devices agreed in scope. Share your audience details early so we can include the right devices in the plan.
Ludych works with Magento, WooCommerce and Shopify. The right choice depends on your catalog, budget, team and how much customization you need, so we compare them against your requirements.
Shopify is a hosted platform and often suits smaller teams that want less to manage. Magento offers more control and customization and can suit larger catalogs with specific requirements. WooCommerce is worth considering if you already run WordPress.
