Introduction to the Application and Business Context

Label generator is an innovative application designed for stores to automatically generate product labels. Designed to streamline operations in the label management area, the application handles processes from printer setup, template management, to precise label printing. The application addresses the growing needs of eCommerce and retail companies that need a reliable tool to handle product labels quickly and efficiently.

Project Objectives and Challenges

The application aimed to provide a comprehensive solution that:

  • Providing a dedicated dashboard (Dashboard) with the most important shortcuts to functions such as printer list, user and template settings.
  • Implementing clear interfaces for adding, editing and deleting printers and templates.
  • Incorporating search, filtering, and role and location assignments for greater operational precision.
  • Provides full integration with the Shopify platform using modern technologies, which automates the synchronization of user and product data.
  • Building an editor to create a labels template.

Technology and Development Tools

The application was built using proven technologies that ensure stability, performance, and ease of development:

  • Next.js – enables fast page rendering and the use of server components, which speeds up application loading and improves user experience.
  • Prisma – used to manage the PostgreSQL database, facilitates data modeling, migrations, and ensures data consistency throughout the application.
  • Tanstack Query – effectively manages the download state, caching, and data synchronization with Shopify GraphQL API, which simplifies the application logic and increases its responsiveness.
  • App Bridge v4 and Shopify API Library – the integration of these tools enables smooth authorization management and synchronization with Shopify store data.
  • Polaris React – a library of predefined UI components, guaranteeing a consistent, professional look of the application interface in accordance with Shopify guidelines.
  • Graphql-Codegen – automates type generation based on the GraphQL schema, increasing code security and facilitating functional development.

Key Features and Application Structure

Project is distinguished by its comprehensive approach to generating stickers, which is reflected in the application documentation:

  • Dashboard Page - Quick access to the most important shortcuts and printer status view (online/offline), enabling immediate control over the system
  • Settings Page - User role management panel (admin, manager, employee) and printer assignment, which streamlines team work.
  • Printers Page - An extensive module that allows you to add, edit and remove printers, with the possibility of viewing detailed information and assigned users.
  • Templates Page & New Template Page - Intuitive editor for creating and modifying sticker templates – from selecting the layout, through editing placeholders (including product name, price, description) to managing layers, colors and typography.

  • Automating processes such as importing products and generating stickers significantly reduced manual operations, allowing the team to focus on more strategic tasks.
  • A structured label management system and integration with the Shopify platform helped increase the efficiency of the entire team, resulting in better organization and reduced errors in daily operations.
  • Transparency in the division of roles and the assignment of appropriate authority enabled better coordination between departments, resulting in increased employee satisfaction and improved cooperation.
  • The ability to assign users to locations and printers has allowed precise management of human resources, so that each employee has well-defined tasks and access to the tools that best suit his or her role on the team.
