Welcome to the Pynventory wiki.

Use this wiki to get the app running, make safe contributions, and follow the project's current direction.

Start here

New contributors should start with these pages:

  1. Local development setup
  2. Your first contribution
  3. Manual testing guide
  4. FAQ

This path takes you from setup to a small tested pull request.

Contributor workflow

Most work should start from a GitHub issue, happen on a branch, and be merged through a pull request.

Current project phase

Pynventory is currently focused on improving the terminal-based inventory app before moving toward a web interface.

Current priorities:

  • product quantities and selling flow
  • search and better list output
  • clearer validation and error messages
  • simple automated tests
  • beginner-friendly contribution flow

For more detail, see the Project roadmap.

Project management

Use GitHub Issues to report bugs, suggest features, ask tracked questions, and discuss planned work. Before starting work, check whether an issue already exists.

Reference

If a decision affects future contributors, document it in the wiki or link to the GitHub issue where the decision was made.
