I build Laravel and PHP tools that catch problems before production does: vulnerable dependencies, missing backups, insecure settings and slow feedback loops. Everything here is open source unless it says otherwise.

| Project | The problem it solves | |
|---|---|---|
| Warden | Vulnerable dependencies and risky production settings slip into Laravel deploys. Warden is a deterministic security gate for CI and deployment pipelines. |   |
| Capsule | Backups nobody has tested. Capsule backs up Laravel databases and files to any storage disk, sends notifications and makes restores straightforward. |   |
| Runnr | Pushing commit after commit just to see if CI passes. Runnr is a native Mac app that runs your existing GitHub Actions workflows locally. | Paid Mac app |
| OWASP Advisor | Not knowing where a Laravel app stands against the OWASP Top 10. OWASP Advisor audits it and reports in the console, JSON or HTML. |   |
| EasyERD | Out-of-date database diagrams. EasyERD generates ERDs from migrations and models without a database, so they can run in CI. |   |
More packages
- Semantica: semantic search for Laravel models using OpenAI, Gemini or local Ollama embeddings.
- Atlas: serve selected Laravel routes as agent-readable Markdown and JSON without rewriting controllers.
- ParqBridge: export Laravel database tables to Apache Parquet files on any storage disk.
- Nook: an open-source macOS menu bar manager written in Swift.
Warden and the packages above are free, open source and independently maintained by me. If they save you time or protect your pipelines, sponsoring on GitHub funds their maintenance and new security checks.
I run We Are Motion, a UK studio that builds brochure websites and custom web systems, and handles SEO and security clean-ups for existing sites. If you need something built or fixed, get in touch through the website.
Mostly PHP, Laravel, TypeScript and Swift. Based in the UK.
