Voiced
An offline-first desktop invoicing app for Arun P, built by Bongbetic.
Voiced turns a few details into a clean, GST-ready PDF invoice. It keeps a running invoice-number series in a local database, remembers your vendor and bank details, and exports print-ready PDFs — no account, no network required.
Features
- Automatic invoice numbering — a persistent series (e.g.
AP/2026-001) that keeps counting up, with a one-click "start a new series" that resets the counter. - Guided first-run setup — your name, address, contact, PAN, GSTIN, logo, signature and bank details, pre-filled from your existing invoice and editable at any time.
- Two line-item modes — a fixed amount, or a rate × quantity where the unit can be per second / minute / hour / session / unit (e.g. 10 sessions × ₹2,500).
- GST support — toggle taxes on/off and split as CGST + SGST (within state) or IGST (inter-state), with live totals and Indian amount-in-words.
- Signatures — attach a PNG/JPEG per invoice, or omit it and the invoice notes that it is computer-generated and needs no signature.
- PDF export — a print-ready A4 invoice styled to match the original
format.pdf. - Saved clients, invoice history with re-export, and light/dark (Carbon g10/g100) themes.
- Input validation for PAN, IFSC, GSTIN, email and phone.
Tech stack
| Layer | Choice |
|---|---|
| Shell | Tauri v2 (Rust core, WebView2 on Windows) |
| UI | React + TypeScript + IBM Carbon Design System (@carbon/react) |
| Fonts | IBM Plex, self-hosted (works offline) |
| Storage | SQLite via rusqlite (bundled) |
@react-pdf/renderer with bundled IBM Plex |
Prerequisites
- Node.js 20+ and npm
- Rust (stable) via rustup
- Linux dev only: WebKitGTK 4.1, libsoup3, GTK3, librsvg,
pkg-config,clang/llvm/lld
Development
npm install
npm run app:dev # launches the desktop app with hot reload
Other scripts:
npm run build # type-check + build the web frontend
npm run app:build # package the app for the current platform
Building for Windows (cross-compile from Linux/macOS)
Tauri only supports the MSVC target. Cross-compiling uses cargo-xwin
and produces an NSIS installer plus a portable .exe. A .msi still requires a real
Windows host.
# one-time setup
rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
cargo install --locked cargo-xwin
# plus NSIS (makensis), LLVM/LLD and clang on the host
npm run app:build:windows
Output lands in src-tauri/target/x86_64-pc-windows-msvc/release/bundle/nsis/ and the
portable binary in the sibling release/ folder.
