Azzaz

I'm Azzaz. I live in Peshawar, where I build resilient web systems for the future.

I'm a backend-heavy full-stack developer, cloud tinkerer, and open web advocate currently wrapping up my BSc in Computer Science from UET Peshawar. I specialize in building scalable platforms with Laravel, PostgreSQL, and Livewire, often pairing them with modern stacks like Vue, React, and Tailwind CSS.

I take deep interest in systems that go beyond the UI — servers, deployment pipelines, containerization, and performance tuning fascinate me. I enjoy refining my DevOps practices using tools like Docker, Redis, and CI/CD pipelines, and I've recently been exploring cloud networking, server security, and distributed systems.

When I'm not coding, you'll probably find me reverse-engineering production setups, optimizing infrastructure on Hetzner/GCP, or helping developers in Discord and forums.

If you ever run into me online, don't hesitate to ask about self-hosting, caching strategies, or how to shave off milliseconds from your TTFB. I'll happily talk your ear off. 🧃

What I'm Currently Building

Right now I'm managing two platforms:

  • Novels GG — A web novel platform for readers and authors, built with Laravel, Filament PHP, and Stripe for monetization. It features custom reading tools, content management, and real-time user engagement.
  • MangaKori — A free manga reading site where authors can submit their work directly. Built for speed and discoverability, it's already live and growing.

Alongside that, I'm actively taking on freelance projects and looking for a backend or full-stack developer role — ideally remote, with a focus on Laravel, infrastructure, or complex web applications.

Soft Skills

Over the years, I've built up some habits that help me thrive in async and remote work:

  • Self-reliant: — I'm used to wearing many hats — from backend engineering to DevOps to UI fixes — and I get things done without needing micromanagement.
  • Detail-oriented: — Whether it's a database schema or GitHub Actions pipeline, I like things clean, fast, and production-safe.
  • Client-focused: — I've worked with startups, agencies, and founders directly — and know how to balance scope, speed, and quality under pressure.
