The key ideas behind this project were

  • Easy to manage - everything runs off a Google spreadsheet
  • Easy to use - select items, swipe the card and transactions happen within 1-2 seconds
  • Fast UI - Local caching of information to minimise response times
  • Lightweight communication - Highly efficient usage of Google Cloud Messaging
  • Secure - OAuth2 for spreadsheet connection
  • Scalable - Works with any number of Devices
  • Synchronised - Local cashes on all devices are updated simultaneously
