About This Blog
I'm Abdullah Shahid, a full-stack developer based in Lahore, Pakistan. I build automated solutions and AI automations that remove repetitive manual work, using Laravel, PHP, Vue.js and WordPress. This blog is where I write about the projects I build, the problems I run into, and the practical lessons that come out of them.
Who Writes This Blog
I'm a full-stack developer working with Laravel, PHP, MySQL, Vue.js, WordPress, JavaScript and Python. A big part of my work is automation: connecting systems, replacing manual processes with automated workflows, and adding AI where it saves real time and cost.
I also run ASK Development, my personal portfolio brand, where I share my projects and services.
My Focus: Automation and AI Automation
Most businesses lose hours every week to tasks a system could handle: copying data between tools, checking content by hand, answering the same requests, and repeating the same website tasks. I focus on building solutions that take that work off people's plates.
- Workflow automation: Automating internal processes, portals and repetitive business tasks.
- AI automation: Using AI to handle tasks such as content, data processing and routine decisions, so teams spend less time and money on manual work.
- Custom Laravel and PHP systems: Backend applications built around how a business actually operates.
- WordPress automation: Faster, more reliable website management, from large-scale migrations to custom landing pages.
For an example of this work, see the Company Portal and Workflow Automation project.
Why This Blog Exists
Most technical write-ups skip the messy parts: what went wrong, what was tried first, and why a decision was made. I started this blog to document real automation and development projects honestly, so developers and business owners can learn from the actual process and not just the final result.
- Real projects: Case studies from work I have actually delivered.
- Automation in practice: How automated and AI-powered workflows are built and what they change.
- Practical lessons: What worked, what didn't, and what I'd do differently.
How the Content Is Created
Every article is based on work I have done or tools I have used myself. I write the posts from my own project experience, check the technical details before publishing, and update articles when something changes.
What I Work With
- Automation: Workflow automation, AI automation, process automation
- Backend: Laravel, PHP, Python
