RestroQT

Short summary

Solo developer built RestroQT, a restaurant POS SaaS for India, handling billing, GST, and kitchen systems on a single VPS. Key insight: restaurants want operational simplicity, not features—QR ordering without login drove adoption. Lessons: start simple, solve one market's real problems, build billing first, prioritize speed and UX over backend complexity.

• •Restaurants prioritize operational efficiency over features—GST compliance, no delays, no kitchen confusion, minimal staff training
• •India-specific SaaS needs: UPI payments, multi-language UI, GST billing rules, unstable internet, non-technical staff
• •Solo-founder stack: FastAPI backend, React frontend, single VPS, automated backups—QR-based ordering without login drove adoption
