Windows app templates: start from software that works

Eight desktop apps ready to change: POS, inventory, invoicing, expenses, front desk, attendance, labels and a file organizer. Pick the one closest to your business, change it in plain words, then download its installer.

The templates

Eight templates, each with a suggested place for its data

For each template we state what it does today, who it suits and what hardware and permissions it needs. Anything not on the list is one sentence away.

Restaurant POS & invoicing

Orders, receipts, products, sales reports

A sales screen where you tap products, an open order that totals and taxes itself as you go, a receipt that prints, and a report of today’s sales. Designed for the person behind the counter: big targets, keyboard shortcuts, no extra steps.

What the template does

  • Products and categories you add and price
  • A new order with its total and tax, with quantity changes and line removal
  • A printable receipt
  • Saved invoices and sales reports

One till that must keep selling when the internet drops: Local. Two or more tills that must see the same orders: Cloud.

Requirements and notes

  • Switch on the Printing ability, and install your receipt printer in Windows first
  • No built-in link to card terminals: the payment method is recorded by hand

Personal file organizer

The thumbnails are coded illustrations, not screenshots. You try the real template in the interactive preview inside the studio.

From template to your software

How a template becomes your software in four steps

  1. 1

    Pick the template

    Open the template in the studio. It comes with sample data so you can try every screen before changing anything.

  2. 2

    Change it in plain words

    Ask for what is specific to you: fields, screens, a different tax rate, your logo and colours. Or click an element in the preview and edit it.

  3. 3

    Confirm the data location

    The template suggests one and you confirm it: on this computer, or Fanann Cloud if more than one PC will work on the same records.

  4. 4

    Build and download

    Switch on the abilities it needs (printing, files…), build the installer, install it on a Windows PC and try it with real work.

What to know before you choose

Windows 10 and 11, 64-bitNo Mac or Linux builds, and none for ARM or 32-bit systems. It does not run on phones.
No automatic updates yetA new version is a new installer you download and install over the old one. There is no MSI package.
Local does not syncIn Local mode each PC has its own data and nothing syncs between them. Fanann cannot recover local data from a damaged PC: keep backups.
A preview is not proofThe browser preview is interactive for the interface only. A build stays “Built” until it is really installed and started on a Windows machine, when it becomes “Tested on Windows”.
HardwarePrinting goes through the printers installed in Windows, and a barcode scanner must type like a keyboard. Not every device is guaranteed: test on yours.
FAQ

Questions about the Windows app templates

Are the templates working apps or pictures?
Working apps: each template is an application with sample data, screens and logic. You open it in the studio, try it in the interactive preview and change it by chat. The thumbnails on this page are illustrations of what the screen looks like.
Can I change a template?
Yes, that is the point. Ask in plain words: “add a table-number field”, “change the tax to 5%”, “add a suppliers screen”. Or click the element in the preview and change it with the visual editor. A template is a starting point, not a locked product.
Can I change the suggested data location?
Yes. The suggestion is a recommendation based on how the template is usually used, and you confirm the choice before the first build. The rule is simple: if more than one installed copy must see the same records, choose Fanann Cloud; otherwise Local is simpler and works offline. The decision guide.
Do the templates work with my printer and barcode scanner?
Printing goes through the printers installed in Windows, so if your printer prints from other Windows programs it will most likely print from your app. A barcode scanner must type the code like a keyboard. We do not guarantee every device: build the app and test it on your own hardware before you rely on it.
Are the templates available on every plan?
Which templates and how much of Windows Studio you get depends on your subscription, and some templates may require a minimum plan. The pricing page explains how it is charged, and inside the app you see what your account can use before you start.
None of the templates fits my business. What now?
Start from a description instead of a template. Write what the software does, who uses it and what it prints, and Fanann builds it from scratch. The steps, with a worked example.
