Matteo Mangoni is a Senior Full Stack Developer with nearly 18 years of hands-on experience delivering modern web and mobile applications from backend systems to polished frontends. He specializes in Laravel-centered architectures (often with Inertia/Vue and VILT stacks) while routinely building rich UIs with Vue 3, Nuxt, React/Next and cross-platform apps with React Native and Flutter. Matteo has led major legacy-to-modern migrations—most recently helping transform a large UK classic-cars portal into a Laravel 11 + Inertia site—and built complex features like real-time communication, ElasticSearch-powered search, and unified DMS feed systems. Comfortable across the stack, he brings production-grade skills in testing, TDD, subscriptions/payments (Stripe/Cashier), and performance tuning for MySQL/Redis/Postgres. An active contributor to open-source Laravel projects, he’s implemented installer tooling and refined developer workflows for widely used community repos. Based in Reggio Calabria, Italy, he pairs pragmatic engineering with a knack for turning messy legacy codebases into maintainable, scalable platforms.
