The Problem
Bank tellers, accountants, and business owners who prepare checks daily needed the same accuracy and payee management as the mobile app — but on a larger screen with full keyboard input, printing support, and a workflow suited to office environments.
The Solution
Philippine Check Writer for Desktop is the PC companion built with Electron, Vite, and React. It brings check writing, payee management, drafts, and reporting to Windows with a desktop-native experience optimized for high-volume use.
Key Features
- Full check-writing workflow with Philippine Peso formatting
- Payee and check history management with search
- Drafts, bounced check calculator, and report generation
- Print and export support for office workflows
- Local-first storage — no cloud dependency
Lessons Learned
Sharing business logic between the mobile and desktop versions while adapting UI patterns for each platform was the biggest challenge. Electron with Vite and React provided a fast development loop and a familiar component model across both products.
