Scouting report

Seasoned WordPress plugin developer from Puerto Rico

assessed from open-source footprint

Staff

78signal

Alexis is a 10+-year front-end and WordPress specialist whose top repos are genuinely useful plugins: Image Gallery Metabox (8★) and Easy Widget Columns (8★), backed by the cohort's highest polish score (73). The serious caveat is a 0.94 abandonment ratio — nearly all repos are dormant — so this is mature, clean PHP/WordPress craft that may be in maintenance mode rather than active building. An excellent fit for a CMS/WordPress shop valuing experience and code quality.
