Project: Reconfigure Backend to New Database (Laravel + Node + WebSockets) I have a mobile app (APK) that was previously working, but after server changes, key features stopped working (messages, calls, wallet updates). I will be moving to a new clean database, so this task is focused on reconfiguring the backend to work correctly with it. Scope of work: - Configure backend to connect and operate with a new database - Ensure database structure matches what the APK expects - Verify and fix Laravel ".env" configuration - Check server environment (PHP, Node.js, MySQL, Nginx) - Ensure queue workers and real-time event broadcasting are working - Verify WebSocket server is handling events correctly - Test full data flow (app → backend → broadcast → app) Important: - Focus on backend configuration and data flow only - Do NOT spend time on frontend/UI - No risky or destructive commands Budget: $10/hour, max 16 hours Looking for someone experienced with Laravel, Node.js, WebSockets, and real-time systems.
