Hi,
My friend runs a small herbal remedies business and doesn't have any software to help him do anything. I created him some spreadsheets that work in the short term, but ideally he needs a database with some forms.
He needs a basic system for inputting and tracking his orders/inventory, grouping that inventory together into herbal formulas (which are ratios of the herbs), a bit of math using the formulas, etc. It's not very complicated and all inputs could be done using basic forms.
I have drawn the basic database scheme and forms that are required, but I'm wondering what the best way to implement this is. I was thinking about using a framework like Django because it's so easy to create basic forms and has good object-relational mapping. But if I do it this way, I will have to install Django on his computer, and he'll run it through a web browser. I'd do this because HTML forms seem simple, compared to making something like a Swing GUI.
Does anybody have any suggestions? It just needs to be simple and done quickly.
Thanks.
