Docket Cache
A persistent object cache accelerator for WordPress. It stores cached data as plain PHP code and uses OPcache for speed — ideal when Redis or Memcached isn’t available.
- Object cache + OPcache
- Advanced post caching
- Object cache precaching
- Menu & translation caching
- Core query & WooCommerce optimisation
- WP-CLI & multisite support
$ wp plugin install docket-cache --activate

Gapo Tunnel
A lightweight tunnel that exposes local services to the internet. Share a website, SSH access or a database with a single command — no port forwarding or firewall changes.
- HTTPS with automatic Let’s Encrypt
- TCP tunnels for SSH & databases
- WebSocket support
- URL rewriting for WordPress & CMS
- TUI dashboard & request inspector
- Auto-reconnect & self-update
$ gapo --server tunnel.example.com:19443 --token secret --http myapp 3000
Why Golang
Compiled, simple, and easy to ship.
When a WordPress site needs something heavier behind it — an API, a worker, a sync tool — Go gives you speed without the operational weight.

FAQ
Common questions.
What is the WordPress backend?
The WordPress backend is the administration area where you change WordPress behaviour, install plugins, and manage your content and design settings. It is also referred to as wp-admin.
What is WordPress backend development?
It is the work of creating and maintaining the technology that makes your website operate properly, such as WordPress core and plugins. It involves the database, server scripts, APIs and other systems behind the scenes.
Do you fix broken plugins?
Yes and no — it depends on your requirement. For a premium plugin, the best option is to contact the plugin developer first. As this is a time-consuming process, we review each request before accepting it.
What Go (Golang) development do you offer?
We build REST APIs, CLI tools, background workers, caching layers and system integrations in Go — either as standalone services or working alongside your WordPress sites.
Why use Go alongside WordPress?
Some jobs are too heavy for PHP: high-traffic APIs, long-running background tasks, data syncs or parallel processing. A Go service handles these efficiently and talks to WordPress through its REST API or database, keeping your site fast.
How are Go applications deployed?
We build a single binary with pure Go drivers (CGO_ENABLED=0), so there is no runtime to install. The same codebase builds for Linux, Windows and macOS, and can be containerised with Docker if you prefer.
How much do you charge?
For both WordPress and Go work, our rates are based on a minimum of 5 working days a week. The total depends on your requirement and how many weeks the work will take.
