I used claude to reverse engineer an old foxpro program. it setup a dos box and went through every screen. Looked at whatever files it could. Took a single week and it was 99% the same.

Can use one sqlite per tenant or look into the new multi writer lib on github.

Yeah it’s all a pain. One thing that helped was using hotwire native. It is basically a web view but it bridges the mobile app with your website and wraps it into a mobile app. This is the only way I can make apps now. Flutter never worked well for me.

Yes, you'll be hard pressed to find any Canadians at any fast food restaurants now. It's a common scam to pay a Tim Hortons owner 20-30k and he'll make you a manager at the franchise, then he'll give you a shared room where you pay monthly to live there. Then you work for free. The UN literaly wrote how Canada has created a neo-slavery system.
