About Me

The developer behind the code

Miranto Fifaliana Mahery Randrianirina
Kaizen 改善

At Pharmaspecific, our product owner put me in charge of the architecture for migrating a legacy CodeIgniter 3 system. I decided to split it into a Laravel API, a React SPA, and a React Native mobile app — chosen so the SPA and mobile app could share code — then built it out with my team. I pushed for Laravel on FrankenPHP specifically for its worker mode, real-time support and performance, and we containerized everything with Docker to keep dev and production environments consistent. I'd never built a mobile app before, but my React background let me pick up React Native quickly.

Based in Antananarivo, I work with both Malagasy companies and international clients remotely.

My background in Management pairs with my technical skills to give me a practical, big-picture view of every project I touch, down to the smallest edge case.

The first time is the hardest part — after that, it's just applying what you already know.

PRS

A legacy CodeIgniter 3 system at Pharmaspecific. Tasked with the architecture, I chose a Laravel API on FrankenPHP (worker mode, real-time support), a React SPA, and a React Native mobile app built to share code with the SPA — my first mobile project. I also set the team's rule for AI-assisted coding: small, reviewable iterations over large AI-generated chunks, to keep correctness in check.
