Avazeh Accounting (Retail Management Software)

Avazeh Accounting is a comprehensive desktop retail management application developed using C# .NET with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). This project demonstrates proficiency in software development, application architecture, and database management. I have already sold this software to some of local retail shop back in my country.

It was built to simplify financial management processes for small businesses and individuals, featuring an intuitive user interface, robust backend logic, and scalable architecture.
