My Laravel-based SaaS has begun to feel sluggish whenever users submit or edit data through our key forms. I want the form layer running as quickly and smoothly as the rest of the application, with solid validation and clear error messaging that never blocks the flow. Here’s the story so far: the project is on Laravel 10, PHP 8, with Eloquent talking to MySQL and a small Redis cache. Most of the pain appears when large payloads hit complex validation rules; response times spike and the UX suffers. I need someone who can profile what’s happening, streamline the validation pipeline, and tighten up error handling so users see concise, actionable feedback—no generic 500s, no spinning loaders. Deliverables I will review against: • Refactored form-request validation that removes redundant rules and leverages Laravel’s custom rules or Rule::when where beneficial • Graceful, localized error responses wired into Blade/Livewire components (or JSON for our API routes) • Database and query optimisations tied to these forms, backed by before/after benchmarks showing measurable latency drops • PHPUnit or Pest tests that prove the new validation paths and error handling work under normal and edge-case payloads • A short README summarising the changes and any new environment variables or config flags I’m happy to give you a staging branch and sample data so you can profile with Xdebug, Telescope, or your preferred toolset. If this sounds like your kind of performance tune-up, let’s talk about timelines and get started.
