This project started as a real-world freelance solution for a local salon that needed something fast and reliable — no bloat, no complexity. Over time it grew into a full desktop POS system with CRM features, analytics, and a UI that actually feels good to use every day.
It's a real business tool. Built, tested, and improved in a real salon environment.
