# Fadil R — AI-Driven Web Developer in Mauritius

> AI-augmented senior PHP / Symfony web architect and full-stack developer based in Mauritius. Hand me an idea — I architect, build, ship and deploy the product. 10+ years across web apps, SaaS, e-commerce, mobile apps, REST/GraphQL APIs and DevOps, now turbo-charged with AI tooling.

Also known as **fadilxcoder**. Available for freelance and remote contracts worldwide. Open to local Mauritius projects (Port Louis and remote).

The hook: **You explain the idea. I do the needful to develop and deploy it.**

## What I do

- **AI-driven development** — I use modern AI tooling (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT) to design, scaffold, refactor, test and ship production-grade code faster, without sacrificing quality.
- **AI integration into products** — connecting LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI), RAG pipelines, agentic workflows and assistant features into PHP / Symfony web apps.
- **PHP / Symfony full-stack** — Symfony 4-7, API Platform, Laravel / Lumen, CodeIgniter, hexagonal architecture, multi-tenant SaaS, custom micro PHP MVC (HFX).
- **Mobile apps** — Android via Flutter, Apache Cordova, Adobe PhoneGap; cross-platform PWA.
- **DevOps & cloud** — Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, CI/CD with GitHub Actions and GitLab, monitoring, secure deployment.
- **End-to-end delivery** — from idea, architecture, build, test, deploy and maintain. One contact, full ownership.

## Who hires me

- Teams who want AI-augmented velocity without sacrificing code quality.
