Started in 2015
A web design group at RRF Institute, then straight into agency work. Eleven years on, the trade has changed platforms several times and the job has not.
Eleven years, one trade.
I’m Ashekur Rahman, a website developer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. WordPress and WooCommerce are my main specialties, and I work with businesses and agencies in the UK, Germany, the GCC and beyond.
I started in a web design class in 2015 and have been building for the web ever since — four years of WordPress at an agency, four leading React front ends for a product team, a year on Nuxt.js applications, and my own clients as a solo freelancer alongside all of it since 2017 — agencies in the UK, Germany and the GCC.
- Since 2015
- WordPress
- React & Nuxt
- Webflow
- Technical SEO
In short
On ThemeForest since 2017
My first WordPress theme was approved that year. Marketplace review is an outside check on build quality, and it has passed several times since.
Freelance since 2017
Alongside the employed roles at first, full-time since 2024. Working directly and white-label for agencies in the UK, Germany and the GCC, alongside my own template marketplace at Codexse.
THE ROUTE
Agency, product team, and my own clients alongside both
Three employers in eleven years, each one adding something the last did not have — platform depth, then engineering discipline — with my own client work running alongside since 2017.

2017 — PRESENT
Freelance & Client Work
Independent · Clients worldwide
WordPress, Webflow and frontend work for businesses and agencies, much of it white-label — running alongside the employed roles below at first, full-time since 2024. Ongoing with WowDesign, with project work through Panze Studio and Quomodosoft. Seventeen builds from across my career are written up here.
-
2023 — 2024
Frontend Developer
Sumashtech Ltd.
Nuxt.js applications for a product team — responsive, server-rendered front ends, and the habits that come from working in a codebase somebody else has to maintain after you.
-
2019 — 2023
Senior Frontend Developer
Peymynt / Payyit
Four years leading React front ends on a financial product, working to a design system and alongside backend and QA rather than solo. Most of what I know about structure came from here.
-
2015 — 2019
WordPress & Frontend Developer
Quomodosoft
Client WordPress builds and, from 2017, themes sold on ThemeForest — PSD to HTML, then HTML to theme, for buyers who open the code and take it apart.
ALONG THE WAY
The route, in five photographs
Not a stock library — the actual rooms the work happened in, a decade apart.

2015
RRF Institute
Where it started
A web design group, and the year I count from. Everything after this is the same trade learned in public: platforms changed, the job did not.
-
2017
Quomodosoft
First theme approved on ThemeForest
Two years into agency work, the first WordPress theme I built passed ThemeForest review. Marketplace review is an outside check on build quality, and it is a harder audience than a client: the buyers open the code.
-
2024
Sumashtech
Nuxt.js, in someone else’s codebase
A year of product work after four leading React front ends at Peymynt. Working inside a codebase other people maintain is where the habits come from — conventions over preferences, and structure that survives you.
-
2024
Sumashtech
The last team I belonged to
The web team, shortly before I went full-time on my own. Most of what I do now is white-label work for agencies, which is the same collaboration with different paperwork.
-
2025
Panze Studio
Meeting the agencies I build for
Four of the case studies on this site came through Panze Studio. Remote agency work runs on trust, and it holds up better when the people occasionally meet.
HOW I WORK
What eleven years actually taught me
Three things, and they are the reason the case studies on this site read the way they do.
Held to, in every project
- Say who did what — the design is often someone else’s, and the page says so
- Build for whoever maintains it next, not for whoever is impressed today
- A fixed written quote before anything starts, and a reply within one working day

“I have been working with Ashekur for almost 7 years, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most talented developers I have worked with. He is excellent at turning designs into pixel-perfect, fully functional websites. What I appreciate most is that he doesn’t just follow instructions, he takes full ownership of the project.
