About the service
I develop headless applications on Payload CMS — a content platform where the data model is described in TypeScript code. Instead of fitting a ready-made rigid admin interface to the task, I define your collections, fields and relationships right in code: the structure matches the product exactly and stays under version control. Everything runs on your servers — your content, your database, your infrastructure. No vendor lock-in, per-seat fees, or hidden limits on volume and queries.
Most projects stumble on access control, so I build it in from the start. I write rules at collection and individual field levels — who can read, create, change and delete each piece of content, configure authentication for editors and API clients, and build the admin interface so each role sees only theirs. Payload generates clean REST and GraphQL endpoints from the same schema, so frontend, mobile app, or adjacent service gets content without a separate integration layer.
You end up owning the entire backend: typed and documented code any TypeScript developer can extend, a comfortable admin for editors, and full control over your data. I'll start from a clean repository or pick up an existing Payload installation, add media handling, drafts, versions and localization.
— Code-first collections and access control on TypeScript
— REST and GraphQL, generated from a single schema
— Deployment on your servers: drafts, versions, media
