A lightweight Water Station Finance & Inventory Manager.
WaTracker is a desktop application designed to streamline operations for local water refilling stations. It allows business owners to maintain a digital directory of customers, process daily transactions with support for various container types (Round/Slim) and water variants (Mineral/Purified/Alkaline), and view detailed sales history logs. The application utilizes a local SQLite database for zero-configuration data persistence.
This project was developed as a final requirement for the Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) course by students from BSCS 2-4.
