How We Build Scalable Web & Mobile Apps at CodeLines (Laravel + Vue + React Native)

Over the last few years, I've worked with my team at CodeLines on building real-world products for businesses — from small startups to companies needing automation, marketplaces, or internal tools.

We’re based in Armenia 🇦🇲, but our projects run globally — including in Russia, UAE, and Europe. Here's what we've learned building complex systems with Laravel, Vue.js, and React Native.

🧱 What We Build

We focus on real, working solutions. Some examples:

CRM systems with user roles, dashboards, and reporting
Marketplaces with vendor panels and API integrations
VPN mobile apps connected to Laravel backend with subscription logic
Product labeling platforms integrated with government systems (e.g. Russia's Честный ЗНАК)
Telegram bots with real-time message processing

🧰 Our Tech Stack

We usually work with:

Laravel – for clean backend structure, fast APIs, and secure admin panels
Vue.js – for responsive and flexible UI
React Native – to build native apps for both Android & iOS from one codebase
MongoDB / MySQL – depending on project needs
NGINX on Ubuntu VPS – for deployments

🧪 Lessons Learned

💡 Always design scalable DB structures from the beginning.
🚦 Don’t over-engineer: use Laravel’s ecosystem (queues, jobs, policies) to your advantage.
🧩 Separate responsibilities: backend stays focused on logic, frontend handles UX/UI.
⚙️ CI/CD helps a lot — even a simple GitHub Actions setup saves time.
