One order, start to finish
A quote becomes an active job without duplicating its record. Customer details, products, artwork, notes, pricing and history all stay together.

PROJECT FILE / 01 — SHOP OPERATIONS SOFTWARE
The operating system for custom production shops.
Quotes on one screen. Artwork in another folder. Production status in someone's head. ManaWorks is being built to give all of that work one home.
LOCAL-FIRSTCUSTOM SHOPSIN DEVELOPMENT
APPROVED PETRA UI DIRECTION / DASHBOARD01 / THE IDEA
One job.
One source of truth.
Custom apparel and production shops rarely get the same job twice. A single order might involve embroidery, DTF, printing, special garments, artwork approvals, production handoffs and a pickup deadline.
ManaWorks is a local-first operations platform designed around the order itself. A quote, production work, quality checks, files, fulfillment and reporting are connected rather than scattered across separate records and tools.
It began under the working name Threadz, but grew beyond apparel into a broader shop-management system.
02 / HOW IT WORKS
Built around the actual work.
The product's core principles, not a promise that every feature is available today.
A production board built for shops
Move work through flexible production stages, filter by method or employee, and keep the team focused on what actually needs doing.
Quality without shortcuts
QA is a protected checkpoint. Rework and authorized exceptions retain an auditable history rather than quietly erasing what happened.
The rest of the shop, connected
Receiving, fulfillment, inventory, tasks, files, costing, reports and staff tools live around the same job and customer context.
03 / PETRA INTERFACE
Less dashboard noise. More doing.
These approved design references show the visual direction for Petra in its Light and Dark themes.
PRODUCTION
A board, not a spreadsheet.
Flexible stage movement, practical filters, and mandatory quality control. The workflow adapts to the job without hiding its history.
ORDER WORKSPACE
Everything attached to the job.
One authoritative workspace for products, customizations, artwork, communications, financials and activity.
Interface images are approved design references. They are not proof that the pictured functionality has passed final deployment testing.
04 / DEVELOPMENT STATUS
Where Petra stands.
Based on the October 2026 build-status snapshot. This is a project update, not a live repository audit.
Core shop workflows
Orders, customers, the production board, receiving, inventory, team tools and other operational areas have been established in the project build.
The order workspace
Product variants, customizations, personalization, specialty presets, pricing and smoother front-counter entry are the current focus.
Real-shop acceptance
Deployment, multiple workstations, secure mobile access, peripherals, training and tested backup/restore remain release gates.
05 / THE LONG GAME
Built for one real shop first.
The initial goal is a dependable local shop system, with Windows workstations and browser access on other devices. A wider commercial product may follow only after it proves itself in real-world use.
