An MIT-licensed, self-hosted report designer and rendering engine. Design invoices, receipts, statements, and labels in the browser; render to PDF, DOCX, HTML, XLSX, CSV, ZPL, or ESC/POS. Embed the designer or send report JSON and data to the API. Early v0.x: not a drop-in JasperReports or Crystal Reports replacement; JRXML imports are partial drafts that need review.

Partial The drag-and-drop designer and the JSON-to-document pipeline are buildable with AI assistance. Faithful rendering across PDF, DOCX, XLSX, ZPL, and ESC/POS formats, and matching established report engines, is hard.
What it would actually take: Build a React-based designer that emits a JSON template and a server-side renderer, using libraries such as pdf-lib or Puppeteer for PDF, docx for Word, and exceljs for spreadsheets, plus printer-language encoders for ZPL and ESC/POS. The hard part is layout fidelity and pagination across output formats, which needs document-rendering expertise and extensive testing to reach production quality.
