Devlyn AI · PHP · Real Estate
PHP engineering for Real Estate. Shipped at 4× pace.
Deploy a senior PHP pod that understands Real Estate compliance natively. One retainer. Embedded in your team in 24 hours.
The intersection
Operating PHP in Real Estate is not just a syntax problem — it is an architectural and compliance challenge.
PHP pods typically ship enterprise API backends, complex CMS architectures, legacy system modernizations, and high-performance e-commerce platforms. Devlyn engineers ship modern, strongly-typed PHP 8.x architectures, strictly adhering to PSR standards, with robust dependency injection and comprehensive test suites.
AI-augmented PHP workflows lean on Cursor for rapid DTO generation, interface implementation, and PHPUnit test scaffolding — under senior validation that owns the architectural patterns (Hexagonal/Clean Architecture), memory management in long-running processes, and security review. Compression shows up strongest in modernizing legacy PHP 5/7 codebases into strictly typed PHP 8.
