oui

oh not at all, i was thinking the same thing. i just needed to hear it from someone else

lol, essentially yes. sorry about that. there's a lot of regulations around software that's used for aerospace and defense, and that's where a lot of the new builds are happening these days. but here's a little decoder ring:

ERP: the core system that manages/plans everything from accounting to inventory MES: the shop floor QMS: the quality system that keeps track of what's went wrong and how we're fixing it CMMC: government regulation NIST 800-171: spec that drives the regulation

there's a lot of good reasons, but the best is there's no perfect off the shelf ERP. things need to become business specific. open-source allows anyone to make the system specific to their business.

ERPNext is more general purpose, Carbon has a lot more for manufacturing.

Haha thanks brother. Hopefully it looks better now

thanks for taking a look. very good read of the state of things. Netsuite level accounting and mrp v2 are what we’re building now. We focused on running a manufacturing business from an “everyone else” perspective first.

I think you’re right in a sense that we’re building the thing I would have wanted — and you’re also right in a sense that there are people out there that know more than me. The key is to learn from them.

most run on BYOC or managed hosting. but for the forks you can tell claude "merge upstream and fix the merge conflicts"

embarrassed founder here. shipped an update to make it look less generic.

you can run the community edition for free. there's enough in there to run a full manufacturing business.

founder here. extremely accurate comment. we had a customer send us this website recently. they said "we think you need a better website, we made this with claude"

I've been using this for a few years. It's great.
