Freelance Laravel & Filament developer · Taking on new projects
I'm Hoceine El Idrissi, a freelance Laravel and Filament developer in Morocco. Web platforms, installable web apps and admin panels that teams in Saudi Arabia, the UK and Palestine rely on, often in Arabic.
Web platforms, installable web apps and a commercial Filament plugin, in production since 2023 and several of them in Arabic. A few up close:
Visual website builder for Filament
Turns any Filament panel into a Shopify-style site builder: drag sections onto a live canvas, edit against an iframe preview, publish. A commercial plugin with 32 sections, a no-code section builder, a store module and full RTL.

Freelance or embedded in your team, remote from Morocco, overlapping working hours with Europe and the Gulf.
Tell me about itFrom a first version you can put in front of users to a platform with tenants, roles, billing and four languages. Laravel on the back, Livewire, React or Vue on the front, whichever fits.
Phone-first web apps that install to the home screen, work offline for the basics and send push notifications, without an app store in the way. Nokhbat Alhoffaz and WiserPocket both work this way.
Panels your operations team actually enjoys using. Custom resources, dashboards, bulk actions, and plugins built to the standard of FilamentCraft.
Right-to-left interfaces, bilingual content and Arabic copy that reads naturally, shipped for clients in Saudi Arabia, Morocco and across the region.
Slow queries, tangled controllers, no tests. I untangle it, add Pest coverage, and leave the codebase easier to change than I found it.
Thirty minutes to understand the business, the users and what done looks like. No slide decks.
A written plan with milestones, trade-offs and a fixed price or weekly rate. You know what you get before you pay.
A deployed build every week on a staging URL. You click through real software, not status reports.
Full-stack Laravel developer in Morocco, working with teams in Saudi Arabia and the UK.
I started with C# desktop apps during an internship in 2022, worked nights as a web developer while finishing my studies, and have been building Laravel products full time ever since.
Laravel is home. On top of it I reach for whatever the product needs: Livewire and Filament for admin-heavy platforms, React or Vue for rich interfaces, and a PWA when people should keep it on their phone. That is how a Quran circles app ends up on students' home screens, and a Hajj platform ships with six separate panels without turning to mud.
I care about the parts nobody sees in a demo: tenancy boundaries, queues that recover, tests that catch the regression before a customer does, and Arabic interfaces that feel native rather than mirrored.
When something is worth sharing, I write it up. There are long-form guides here on Filament, Livewire and Laravel, written for developers doing the same work.
