That holds true for a tailor, even expensive clothing items eventually wear out and get thrown away. They are cared for better, repaired a few times, but in the end, disposed of. I’d say that analogy holds up for 'traditionally' created software vs. AI-created software. Handmade clothes vs. fast fashion.
I am working on a self-hostable borrow store management system: https://github.com/leihbase/leihbase.
I am running it in my city for a library of things. We hope to help people abstain from buying things they only need once a year.
It includes a reservation system, and an dashboard to manage those reservations in the shop. Currently I'm expanding it with a proper product management interface.
This is amazing, love how funny and creative the story is given the constraints! Truly impressive.
Would love to hear more technical details on how corners have been cut to shave off some bytes.
Sorry I forgot to add that in my post, we are only hiring people with a working permit for the EU.

Aren't a lot of startups using dynamic languages because those are more popular? We use Javascript everywhere since that makes it a lot more easy to hire new people.
