" summary

Four rapid updates with concrete outcomes and open work: a point‑of‑sale built on Solidus that runs as a react PWA on iPads, talks to Bluetooth payment terminals and printers, records transactions in S3 and currently only passes successful flows; a local UPS "Luke" rate calculator that scrapes UPS rate and zone tables into a DB, computes dimensional and surcharge logic, and reconciles asynchronously against the UPS API; a reporting app that surfaces backorder revenue across 60,000 SKUs by stock location; and a Solidus roadmap with market analysis and a Trello backlog for PWA, API and payment priorities.
