Built a shift-swap board for our warehouse team

Close

Shift swaps that stop living in a group chat.

Forty people on rotating shifts, all swapping in WhatsApp, and a supervisor copying the results into a spreadsheet by hand. Now a swap is posted, claimed, and confirmed on one page, and the supervisor approves with a single click.

Bolt got me a working board in an evening. Getting the permissions right took another three weeks, because my first version let anyone claim anyone else's shift. A colleague found that within an hour of me sharing the link.

Three weeks for permissions sounds right. Did the "only claim open swaps" rule end up in RLS or in the app? priya_ships 3 days ago

RLS in the end. The app-only version got bypassed by the first curious colleague. tomvibes 3 days ago
