Building Stoqyy in Public

While sharing Stoqyy publicly, one response stood out to me today:

“This is something I might very much need.”

That single line validated why I started building this product.

Stoqyy exists because many small businesses still manage:

  • Sales in one app
  • Inventory in notebooks or spreadsheets
  • Profits by gut feeling

As developers, it’s easy to over-engineer solutions. But building Stoqyy has been about doing the opposite—reducing cognitive load.

The Core Principle

Every decision in Stoqyy comes back to one question:

Can a business owner understand their situation in seconds?

From a technical standpoint, that means:

  • Fewer UI states
  • Clear data models
  • Real-time but calm dashboards
  • Performance that works on low-end devices

Why Build in Public?

Sharing early helps surface real-world feedback faster than assumptions ever could. Comments like today’s aren’t about validation—they’re about direction.

They tell me I’m working on a real pain, not an imagined one.

What’s Next

Still refining flows.
Still simplifying screens.
Still listening.
