Build a Full Stack POS System with Laravel 13 & React 19 – Full Course for Beginners (2026)
Learn full-stack web development by building a complete Point of Sale (POS) system from scratch with Laravel 13, React 19, Inertia.js, and Tailwind CSS 4 — in one full course. No separate REST API, no CORS: Laravel and React live in a single codebase thanks to Inertia.
By the end you'll have a real, working POS: product & category management with image uploads, a live sales screen, a cart with real-time totals, checkout with cash/change, printable receipts, a dashboard, and paginated sales history. Every concept is explained in plain language — no skipping.
