Jasmin BELLANCE

Hello! I’m Jasmin, a PHP developer since 2012.

On every project, I start by understanding how everything fits together: the data, the tools and the people who use them. Then I strengthen whatever will turn that system into a well-oiled machine, one that keeps running long after I’ve left.

I’ve helped a number of companies build business tools and websites, on the business and SEO side as much as on the purely technical side.

When I’m not behind my screen, you’ll find me in the kitchen cooking good food for my family, or playing Call of Duty.

How I work

  1. I understand before I touch anything. In the first week, I read the code, map the architecture and spot the weak points. You get a written assessment.
  2. I ship small and often. Regular releases, checked on a staging environment, then deployed automatically (Jenkins, Drush).
  3. I document everything. Every technical decision is explained in the repository, so your team can take over the code without me.
  4. I think SEO from day one. URLs, metadata, redirects, performance: SEO is built into development, not bolted on afterwards.
  5. I keep communication simple. A short check-in every week, same-day replies, and clear explanations for non-technical people.
