I've been working on an open-source database management tool built with Tauri.

The goal is to create a lightweight, native desktop application for managing databases without the memory overhead that comes with Electron-based tools.

Current focus:

• Built with Tauri
• Open source
• Cross-platform
• Native desktop performance
• Simple and clean interface

The project is still under active development, and there are plenty of features planned. I'm sharing it early to get feedback from developers who regularly work with databases.

Repository:
https://github.com/Premod1/SiphonDB

I'd appreciate any feedback on the architecture, UI/UX, feature ideas, or contributions from anyone interested in the project.

What features do you consider essential in a modern database management tool?

Built a Laravel accounting engine package I've been working on recently. It's designed as a standalone double-entry accounting core that can be integrated into ERP, POS, invoicing, or finance systems.

Features

• Double-entry accounting engine
• Dynamic chart of accounts
• Real-time general ledger generation
• Trial Balance reporting
• Balance Sheet reporting
• Income Statement (P&L)
• Cash Flow statements
• Multi-SBU / branch reporting
• Fiscal period locking
• Polymorphic transaction linking
• Multi-currency support
• Tax/VAT handling
• Fixed asset management
• Automated depreciation posting
• Budgeting & variance reporting
• Bank reconciliation matching
• AR/AP ageing reports
• Fiscal year closing engine
• Full audit trail & activity logging

Would love to hear feedback from other developers building finance or ERP systems.

One of the biggest frustrations when building POS systems and billing applications is that browsers don't allow direct access to printers. Users are forced through the print preview dialog for every receipt, which breaks fast checkout workflows.

This project acts as a local bridge that enables web applications to print HTML content directly to 58mm and 80mm thermal printers without showing the browser print dialog.

How it works:

• Receives print requests from a web application
• Uses Puppeteer to render HTML into high-quality PDFs
• Sends the generated PDFs directly to installed printers using pdf-to-printer
• Supports common thermal receipt formats (58mm and 80mm)
• Runs locally on the user's machine

I originally built this to solve a real problem I faced while developing web-based POS systems.

I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or contributions from developers who have worked with printing in web applications.
