Hi All, Just discovered that someone created a video tutorial for Samarium, the Laravel based open sourcet ERP project I have been working on. Pretty surreal moment! I have been posting about its updates here as well before. I just saw the video in youtube. Its the first time someone has made a youtube video of the project so i got kinda excited and thought of sharing here. The video walks through the installation process and gives a nice overview of what the project is about. Always amazing to see when people in the community take time to create content around open source projects. For those interested: GitHub: https://github.com/oitcode/samarium YouTube tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD4Wr8cT1CU As the author, I know there are many bugs and lacking features in the project maybe, and also many part of the code needs refactor.
Read the rest
But seeing a video someone else has made - that really gives added motivation. Also, thanks to all the comment and feedback I had got here when i had posted before. I have implemented some of those, and it has been helpful. Thanks and have a good time all.

Show HN: Samarium – open-source business management tool for developers

Samarium is a work-in-progress business management system that aims to help small businesses handle basic operations like invoicing, inventory, and customer management in one place. While it's still in active development with many features being refined and added, it might be useful for simple business needs. The project started as a learning exercise but has grown into something that could potentially help others who need basic business management tools without the complexity or cost of enterprise solutions.
