Nobody hired me to build these. I picked three businesses that would need real software — a barbershop, a parts planner, a card shop — and built each one as if it had to hold up in public. No business is running on them today. Where there's a database, a login or an admin panel, it's real anyway, and every one is running live right now, so you don't have to take my word for it.

Ferro Barber Co.
Live
Books appointments against a real database.
A barbershop booking site. Open times are read out of a live database, and booking one writes back to it, so the slot is genuinely gone for the next person instead of resetting on refresh. Behind a password there's an admin side that lists what's on the books and cancels anything that changes. The sign-in is real session-based authentication, not a page that hides a div.

Live
Prices a build before anyone picks up the phone.
Pick a vehicle, browse parts by category, add what you want, and a running cost total updates as you go. You can keep several builds going at once, sort by price, and pull listings from multiple sources at the same time instead of checking them one by one. The same machinery underneath is what you'd want for quoting any job that's made of parts.

Live
Runs a catalog that can be changed in under a minute.
A card shop storefront with a live catalog. Names, prices and descriptions are edited on a password-gated admin page and appear on the storefront immediately — nothing to rebuild, nothing to redeploy, no developer to call. If you sell physical things and your prices change, that admin page is the part worth looking at.
