Project description

I developed a full-fledged Inventory Management application for iOS tailored to streamline inventory operations for businesses. Built from the ground up, this app incorporates a powerful barcode scanning functionality for swift inventory tracking, a dynamic check-in/check-out system for real-time stock updates, and an extensive user and permissions management interface for secure operations.

Features:

1. Barcode Scanning: Utilizes the device's camera to scan barcodes, allowing for swift addition and retrieval of inventory items.

2. Check-In/Check-Out System: Manages stock levels by tracking item movements, ensuring accurate and up-to-date inventory records.

3. User Access Management: Supports the creation of multiple user roles with specific permissions to limit or grant access to various app functionalities, enhancing security and operational integrity.

4. Advanced Employee Profiles: Maintains detailed employee records, including activity logs and performance data, to facilitate easy management and data-driven decision-making.

5. Synchronized Cloud Database: Utilizes a cloud-based backend to ensure data consistency across multiple devices and prevent data loss.

6. User-Friendly Web Interface: Provides a comprehensive web version of the app using React Js for cross-platform management capabilities.

7. Robust Reporting: Generates insightful reports and analytics that allow for effective tracking of inventory levels, employee activities, and more for strategic planning.

Technical Contributions:

1. iOS Development: Crafted the app using Xcode and Swift with an emphasis on clean code through the use of MVC architecture for easy maintenance and scalability.

2. Firebase Integration: Implemented Firebase for secure real-time data storage, user authentication, and server-side logic via Cloud Functions for complex processing tasks.

3. Stock Management: Deployed atomic transactions in Firebase to handle stock updates, ensuring consistency and reliability of the inventory data.

4. Web Interface Development: Built a responsive web version using React Js with Redux for efficient state management, connecting to Firebase for backend functionalities.

5. CI/CD Pipeline: Engineered a streamlined CI/CD process using GitHub Actions and Firebase Hosting to facilitate rapid development cycles and consistent deployments.

6. Performance Optimization: Included best practices such as the Singleton pattern for resource-sharing and Observer pattern for event-driven architecture, alongside regular code refactoring to keep the application performing optimally.
