Split mechanical keyboard kits and other oddities.
Mventory is an API-driven inventory solution for Makers, Makerspaces, Hackspaces, and just about anyone else who needs to keep track of "stuff".
I've written it to scratch an itch because I couldn't find anything else out there that would give me a simple way to keep track of the various components and materials in my garage, and wanted something that could translate easily from my house to a Makerspace in future.
Apart from the very basic admin pages there is no "pretty" interface built in, but the ability to communicate with the platform from almost any other platform is there from day one.
Happy with using the built-in admin pages? Great! Go for it!
Want to write an app for your phone that you can use whilst walking around the Makerspace? Yup, you can do that too!
By having the built-in admin but allowing anyone to write their own front-end for the platform, all we need to worry about is storing and presenting the raw data to whatever you choose to use to query it. This makes the code a lot easier to maintain for us, whilst keeping the options for future integration wide open!
Uses SQLite by default.
InvenTree is an open-source Inventory Management System which provides powerful low-level stock control and part tracking. The core of the InvenTree system is a Python/Django database backend which provides an admin interface (web-based) and a JSON API for interaction with external interfaces and applications.
InvenTree is designed to be lightweight and easy to use for SME or hobbyist applications, where many existing stock management solutions are bloated and cumbersome to use. Updating stock is a single-action process and does not require a complex system of work orders or stock transactions.
Has a mobile app.
