Challenge

The challenge was to build a standalone POS system that seamlessly operates across multiple industries without relying on external ERP integrations. The system needed to handle real-time transactions, work offline, and provide a smooth and efficient user experience for different types of businesses, from retail stores to restaurants and fuel stations.

Solution

To address the challenges, the solution involved:

• Developed a cross-platform Tauri-based application for high performance and lightweight deployment, ensuring smooth operation on various devices.

• Utilized Rust and TypeScript for a secure and efficient system architecture, balancing speed and reliability.

• Implemented an SQLite database for offline transaction support, allowing businesses to continue operating even without an internet connection.

• Designed an intuitive UI with React to provide an easy-to-use experience tailored to different business environments, from retail to hospitality and fuel stations.

• Integrated a robust inventory and sales tracking system to help businesses manage stock levels and sales reports efficiently.

• Enabled modular customization, allowing businesses to configure features based on their needs, such as table management for restaurants, barcode scanning for retail, and fuel pump integration for gas stations.

• Implemented multi-device synchronization to support multiple POS terminals working simultaneously while maintaining real-time data consistency.

• Provided built-in receipt printing and invoice generation features to streamline customer transactions.

• Developed a secure user management system with role-based access control (RBAC) to restrict actions based on staff roles and permissions.
