Top SchoolMatthew Diggins is a seasoned web developer with over two decades of professional experience and 12 years in focused roles building dynamic, database-driven sites, CMSs and REST APIs. He is proficient across a broad stack—PHP (Laravel, CodeIgniter, Slim), WordPress, Node/React/Vue, SQL databases and geolocation integrations—and consistently delivers mobile-first, MVC responsive applications. His recent work spans Docker-based Laravel CMS projects, WooCommerce/MySQL optimisation, custom Gutenberg blocks and real-time integrations with third-party APIs like PipeDrive and Slack. Comfortable as both sole developer and team contributor, he brings practical DevOps habits (Git, GitLab, Vagrant, Docker) and cross-platform development experience on Windows, macOS and Linux. An early web practitioner since 1997, he combines legacy platform knowledge (JSP, ColdFusion) with modern tooling and a knack for turning geospatial and solar-data into usable client-facing features.
