Hi everyone! :waving_hand:

I’m the maintainer of attendance_system, an open-source Flutter application (with accompanying backend) for managing employee attendance, leave, payroll, reports, and more. It’s designed to be real-world ready yet extensible.
Repository: GitHub - FlutterX88/attendance_system: attendance system

:white_check_mark: What’s the Project About

Some of the key features:

  • Employee registration & profiles
  • Attendance marking (check-in / check-out)
  • Leave management
  • Salary / payroll reports
  • Data visualizations (charts, graphs)
  • Role-based access (admin / employee)
  • Responsive UI across devices
  • Modular architecture for easy customization

It uses Flutter for the frontend, and a backend stack (Node.js + PostgreSQL) for data storage and APIs.

The project is released under GPL-3.0 license.
