The offline app is a better option than a web app since the internet can sometimes be a major problem. With this app, the workers can send the invoices to the server manually later if there was no internet at the moment of recording the inv

you are right! I used try and error with the workers. I kept in touch with them from the beginning. Besides that, I worked there during the summer break when I was a bachelor student. I have an idea of how stuff works there.

The App can be adjusted very quickly to serve similar business fields. You need only to change the products and properties in the data classes and some calculations logic. Of course, our real data is not open-sourced. I could not find simil

That is a good point! Our workers have Android phones which are at least 6 years old. Later after the test period, I am planning to provide them with a tablet specifically for running this App.

The problem is that the workers are not sitting in front of the computer. They are moving around inside the warehouse with the customers. For them using a phone or tablet can be the best for them. Therefore, I chose to build an App that is

The App is used now by our workers in the wood warehouse to replace handwriting invoices. There is no online market place here. As a manager, if I want to know how the business does, I need to call the sales team at the warehouse and have a

Thanks for your feedback. I tried to use data classes in Kotlin to remove hardcoded data from the main code. In Python, this is easy and very useful. Splitting the classes was confusing. I am sure I am going to make it better in my next App

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I agree 100% with you. I am thinking to provide hints to the users either by giving a link to the source or showing a picture of the results or both.
