Khoyer writes code, hunts bugs, and breathes perfume.
Product engineer, ex-support manager, and fraghead.
I like to solve technical problems and play with code. I mostly love working with WordPress, PHP, JavaScript, and Cloudflare products. Product Engineer at Themefic, taking freelance projects that need solid engineering. The work is clean, simple, and made to last.
Kind Words
I had the pleasure of working with Khoyer before the AI era, and he's an exceptional clean coder. His code is clear, well-structured, and reliable. He also takes the time to document everything thoroughly, ensuring easy understanding and maintenance. While the AI landscape may have shifted development practices, his attention to quality and best practices remains invaluable.

Technologies I Work With
More than half my career was spent with WordPress-based products, and that's still the core of it: WordPress, PHP, and JavaScript, shipped on Cloudflare. Interfaces are where I live, so I run full-stack JavaScript. Same syntax from front end to backend. When a project needs a full app, I scaffold it with Better T Stack, a modern CLI for end-to-end type-safe TypeScript projects, then shape the build to what it needs.
