How does Rector Improve your Business?

Rector is a PHP tool that you can run on any PHP project to get an instant upgrade or automated refactoring.

It helps you with:

  • PHP and framework upgrades,
  • in-house framework migrations,
  • improving your code quality to deliver features faster than competition

In the hands of an expert, Rector massively reduces your work-time.
Where project upgrade PHP 8.0 to 8.4 would take 3 months, Rector is done in 3 days.

You can learn it yourself from documentation, or to save time and start upgrading today, hire our upgrade team.
