Project number: 317 (number in database). Original project name: Invoicing. Development type or programming language: PHP/MySQL. Platform designed for/with: Mac. Year of most recent major modification: 2023.
This is a web-based application/database project I started in June 2023, then had a break, and resumed in November 2023. The basic functionality was working at that point.
It is designed to handle my invoicing for my private IT work. In addition I wanted to explore some different web techniques that I hadn't used much before. Various free and commercial invoicing apps I tried were all too complicated and awkward to use.
My invoicing system has a mobile page where a new job can be entered with 4 taps, and no typing, in literally less than 5 seconds. The main app is designed to work on a computer screen and allows editing jobs, creating invoices, and automatically creating a PDF invoice or emailing that to the client.
It has a full privileges system, so I can allow someone (my wife, for example) to help with basic stuff, like marking work as being paid, without allowing them into the more intricate parts of the system.
It is very elegant and easy to use, and I intend to add new features as necessary.
