Hire The Rector Team

Rector is a tool that we develop and share for free, so anyone can automate their refactoring. But not everyone has dozens of hours to understand complexity of abstract-syntax-tree in their own time. That's why we provide commercial support - to save your time.

Would you like to apply Rector on your code base but don't have time for the struggle with your project? Hire the Rector team to get there faster.

Learn Rector Faster

Not everyone has time to understand Rector and AST complexity. You can speed up the process by reading the book The Power of Automated Refactoring. Not only will it help you learn and understand Rector but it supports the project as well.
