Your Laravel development partner, from a team that builds on it daily

Person holding a phone showing the KickTown app, built on a Laravel backend by Storm Digital

We've built on Laravel for over ten years: custom CMS applications, APIs and bespoke web applications, this site included. That means we're not learning the framework on your project; we're bringing a decade of daily use of it to whatever you're building.

Pictured: KickTown, whose leaderboards, in-app store and social feed all run on a Laravel backend we built.

What's included

From a new build to picking up an existing Laravel codebase, we work the way the framework is meant to be used, not around it. That includes payment and subscription billing with Laravel Cashier on ecommerce builds, and AI-powered features with Laravel AI where a project calls for it; see our AI development work for more on that side.

Common questions

Can you take over an existing Laravel project?

Yes, a lot of our Laravel work is picking up a codebase someone else started. We'll audit it honestly first and tell you if it's in reasonable shape or needs more remedial work than a quick handover.

Why Laravel over other frameworks?

It gives us a fast, well-tested path to a lot of what custom software needs, including authentication, queues and deployment, without reinventing it each time, which means more of the budget goes into the parts of your product that are actually unique.

Where do you deploy Laravel applications?

We dockerise applications so they can run on any VPS or dedicated server. We've deployed to AWS, DigitalOcean and Hetzner among others, depending on what a client already has in place.

How long does a Laravel build take?

A lean admin system or API can land in a few weeks; something with billing, complex permissions or a lot of integrations takes longer. We'd rather scope it properly against what you actually need than quote a number upfront.

What happens after launch?

We don't hand over a Laravel app and walk away. Security patches, framework upgrades and new features tend to keep us involved long after the first release.
