About Me

Hello! I’m Aziz Ur Rehman Badar, a Full-Stack Developer and Cybersecurity Expert with over 9 years of experience delivering secure, high-quality web and mobile solutions. I hold a Master’s in Cybersecurity (Gold Medal, 2024) and a BS in Software Engineering (2016). Over the years, I have successfully completed 200+ projects, earning a reputation for excellence and a client-first approach.

What I Offer: I specialize in secure full-stack development using PHP, Laravel, Node.js, Express, React, Next.js, React Native, and Python. My expertise extends to databases such as MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, and Cloud Firestore, as well as modern web & mobile design using HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, and UI/UX design tools like Canva and Photoshop. I also provide specialized services in WordPress, API integration, Joomla, and Magento.

I am passionate about building fast, reliable, and secure digital products—whether it’s a web application, mobile app, or a custom solution with cybersecurity baked in. Let’s build something great together: if you need a secure site or app, let’s connect and turn your vision into an innovative, error-free reality.
