New Freelancer Work at low budget but for long term. I’m tightening up an existing CodeIgniter project and need a developer who can jump in quickly and tackle whatever PHP/CI tasks come up—anything from squashing a bug to refining a controller or tweaking a view. Because the budget is limited, I’d like each change broken into small, clearly costed milestones so there are no surprises. You’ll work in my private Git repository, commit regularly, and verify every update on our cPanel/MySQL staging site before it goes live. Clean, well-commented code and prompt communication are essential; if a fix or feature touches more than one layer (model, controller, view), please flag it so we can keep scope realistic. When you bid, share a link or two to previous CodeIgniter work you handled on a shoestring budget and let me know how quickly you typically turn around a simple ticket. If this first batch goes smoothly, I’ll have a steady stream of similar CI maintenance and enhancement tasks waiting.

I work in PHP MVC frameworks daily (CodeIgniter included) and I'm comfortable jumping into an existing codebase without a rewrite — model/controller/view boundaries, cPanel/MySQL staging workflows, and Git commit discipline are all standard for me. I like your milestone-based approach for a tight budget; happy to quote each ticket individually so there are no surprises. For a simple bug fix or view tweak I typically turn around within a day, faster if it's isolated to one layer. If it touches multiple layers I'll flag scope before starting, as you asked. Looking forward to a steady working relationship if this first batch goes well — what's the first ticket you'd like tackled?

Hi, I have strong experience with PHP, CodeIgniter, MySQL, and cPanel, and I'm comfortable working on existing CodeIgniter applications. I can quickly fix bugs, improve controllers, models, and views, and keep each task organized into small, clearly defined milestones to match your budget. I am experienced with Git workflows, commit regularly, and always test changes on a staging environment before deployment. I also communicate proactively whenever a task affects multiple layers of the application so the scope remains clear. I can usually complete a simple bug fix or small enhancement within a few hours, depending on the complexity. Unfortunately, I can't publicly share private client repositories, but I'd be happy to discuss my previous CodeIgniter work and relevant experience in detail. I'm looking for a long-term working relationship and would be happy to start with the first task right away. Thank you, and I look forward to working with you.
