Stckr: inventory tracking with qr codes and item records
An inventory app for people who want manuals, receipts and service dates on owned items.
Problem it solvesKeeping track of manuals, receipts and service dates for owned items is messy.
David built Stckr, an inventory management app, for people who want to tag items with QR codes and open item details on a phone. He says the app took 81 days to build and later reports his first profitable product is about to hit £1,000 MRR.

A year ago I built my first app. It took 1,723 commits. It was an inventory management app called Stckr. You'd stick a QR code on something you own, scan it, and your phone would pull up the manual, the receipts and when it was next due a service. I worked on it for 81 days. Nearly half the commits were fixes, and I rolled the whole thing back 66 times when something broke. Getting a scanned QR code to open the app on the right item took weeks. Getting Google sign-in to work took 34 commits over two days. Today I could build it in an afternoon. I wouldn't swap those 81 days though. Doing every piece by hand taught me how apps actually fit together. A year later I've launched my first profitable product, and I'm about to hit £1,000 MRR for the first time.
