The sofware focus on automating tasks other systems don't, document decisions and an extremelly tight link between the budget and the real and projected expenses.
Construction is a very local dependent business so good systems from other countries didn't adapt really well here. Hence the effort to make our own. I am the solo dev.
Stack is
* Backend: Quarkus.io , Lombok and Java
* Frontend: React, Ant Design and Typescript
* Persistentency: Postgres
* Automatic Backup: S3 and custom Postgres container
* Platform: Civo and K3s for PROO
* Security: Keycloak
* CI/CD: Github actions and Cloudflare pages
* Local Env: Docker for local.
* Ide:IntelliJ
Why did I Chose it: * Java and Quarkus: because I have 20 years of experience with Java, it's rock solid, performance is great and I am fast with it.
* Civo and K3s: Because I love k8s but it's too expensive to run for my operation.
* Postgres: It's just great.
* React and Ant Design: I like React approach, I have used Angular and Backbone before and react is awy better. Ant Design is just awesome, great looking components and they work 99% of the time, documentation is also very good.
* Keycloack: because makes me faster, implementing security by your self is always a bad idea unless you are a pro, which I am not. Keycloak let's me focus on the business.
* Github actions: Simple, powerful, free!
* Cloudflare pages: Simple, powerful, free!
Do you think your choices had any impact on your success?
Not there yet, let's talk in 3 years. But we are using the system at my company already and locally it's been a great sucess, improved our work by a mile, people are happy using it even with some bugs, we are already saving money and identifying places where we didn't have a good budget to improve next time. We also are not afraid of people leaving anymore, since with the system their replacements can pickup where they left and continue to work on Day 1 and buy stuff maintaining the time requirements, that was the best part.
