Ah I should have been more specific. For some context, I learned software development on the job and later studied Human-Computer Interaction. I want to be at the intersection of software and design.

Software Engineering at Plenty involved a lot of creative problem solving. But I wanted to work on visually creative projects. Some of my initial projects at Plenty did involve interactive UIs, but as I gained better understanding of our stack, I was required to do a lot more back-end work which wasn’t very exciting to me.

I wanted to do more creative work, whereas the work at Plenty was more about problem solving.

Plenty (https://plenty.ag) is trying to scale hydroponics using plant science and automation. (I worked here till a few months ago.) Indoor agriculture is going to supplement our nutrition needs in the future. Plenty is focusing on flavor as its selling point, and after eating Plenty produce, everything else seems like eating cardboard.

Disclaimer: I am one of the developers that built this.

Try Frappe Framework (https://frappe.io). We have received feedback that it is really good to quickly build internal projects or prototypes.

Also ERPNext (https://ERPNext.com) is an open source erp that is feature rich and has a good UI. It can help any startup to manage their business without resorting to complicated excel sheets based management.
