NodeDR POS

The free POS for every retail shop

NodeDR POS launched on July 26, 2026 with 2 votes.

What it does

NodeDR POS is a free, open-source Point of Sale that works anywhere in the world. Barcode scanning, tax billing, thermal printing, loyalty points, returns — all on your own machine. No internet, no subscription, no data ever leaves your store.

Free, offline-first Point of Sale software for any shop worldwide. Barcode scanning, tax billing, thermal printing, loyalty points, returns. Native Windows and Linux installers, or one Docker command — zero subscription, ever.

Ringing up sales on a notebook or a spreadsheet means stock counts drift and closing time means an hour of manual tallying — and a subscription POS fixes that for a monthly fee, only while you're online. NodeDR POS is the free, open-source alternative: barcode scanning, tax billing, thermal printing, loyalty points, returns — all on your own machine. No internet, no subscription, no data ever leaves your store. Installs Docker Desktop and git via Homebrew if either is missing. NodeDR POS ships all the core POS features in one Docker Compose stack — no plug-ins, no paid tiers, no feature gating. Scan to add items, scan again to bump quantity, press Enter to finalize. Unknown barcodes surface…from pos.nodedr.com

    Hi HN, I built StagePOS, a cloud POS system that's completely free with no monthly fees. The Problem: Small businesses pay $50-200/month for basic POS functionality, often locked into expensive proprietary hardware. The Solution: - 100% free software - Works with any ESC/POS thermal printer - Stripe Terminal integration at standard rates (2.7% + $0.05) + platform fee ($0.05) = total(2.7% +$0.10) - Cash payments = zero fees - Cloud-based with real-time sync - Built with React + Node.js Features: - Multi-business types (Restaurant, Bar, Karaoke, Retail) - Remote order support -…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
