Building something different with AI ๐Ÿค–: Inventory Tracker
Instead of another AI chatbot or automation, I'm building a Robotics Inventory Tracker for our school's robotics club.
The goal is simple:
๐Ÿ“ฆ Track robotics kits with QR codes
๐Ÿ” Instantly view every component in a kit
โœ… Mark kits as Complete or Ongoing
โš ๏ธ Report missing parts in seconds
๐Ÿ“Š Give officers a dashboard to monitor inventory
What's been fun is using AI as a development partner instead of just a code generator.
My workflow has been:
  • Claude for architecture and feature implementation
  • AI for UI/UX iteration and design feedback
  • Vibe coding the frontend while focusing on user experience
  • Rapid prototyping instead of spending hours planning every screen
One thing I've realized is that good AI-assisted development isn't about writing prompts that generate an entire appโ€”it's about continuously refining, testing, and improving each iteration.
The screenshot below is the latest version of the dashboard. It's still a work in progress, but it's already a huge improvement over the first design.
My next goals:
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Polish the mobile experience
  • ๐ŸŽฅ Create a product demo video
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Add analytics and inventory history
  • ๐Ÿ”” Real-time notifications for missing parts
  • ๐ŸŽจ More polished micro-interactions and animations
Curiousโ€”what's everyone else building with AI right now? Any features you'd add to an inventory system like this?
