About Joshua
Hi, I'm Josh — freelance web developer based in Germany, available remotely worldwide.
I build modern, performant websites and web applications — across two stacks,
depending on what actually fits your project:
→ WordPress with custom Gutenberg blocks (no page-builder bloat, real custom components)
→ Next.js + PayloadCMS for scalable, future-proof web applications
With 5+ years of experience, a React bootcamp (Wild Code School), and hands-on agency work with React, Vue.js, and enterprise CMS systems, I know both worlds well enough to give you an honest recommendation — even if that means suggesting
something simpler than you expected.
Recent work:
- KM Bauservice GmbH (k-m-bauservice.de) — Full WordPress rebuild on the
TwentyTwentyFive theme with custom-built Gutenberg blocks: hero sections,
service tiles, project tabs, contact form with bot protection, SEO setup,
content creation, logo reconstruction. From concept to deployment.
- Shivas Garten Yogaschule (shivas-garten.de) — WordPress theme migration,
custom PHP fields, local dev → zero-downtime deployment, ongoing support.
What working with me looks like:
No project manager in between. I'm the person writing the code and answering your messages.
I give you regular updates, involve you at key decisions, and
hand off documented work you can maintain.
Available for fixed-price projects (preferred) and hourly engagements.

- CAD PartyserviceAndroid · Next.js · PayloadCMS · Custom ApplicationENTERTAINMENT AND LEISUREOctober 2025 - January 2026 (3 months)Erkelenz, GermanyA party tent rental company approached me to build a custom app for managingtheir inventory and appointments.Before this app existed, everything had to be calculated manually. Since alltents share similar materials and components, it was always difficult to determinehow much material remained available in storage after multiple bookings had been made.My solution is a CMS-backed Android application that handles all of thesecalculations — and more — with just a few clicks. Through the app, staff cancreate new events, check and adjust current stock levels, add new tentconfigurations, and manage bookings end-to-end.Stack: Next.js + PayloadCMS as the backend/CMS layer, Android client application.
