qtecsolution/qpos ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a smart point of sale web app for a small business, using Laravel for the backend and a React based front end. I want it to feel like a real working store system, with a clean dashboard showing sales totals and key charts, a fast POS screen for searching products by name or barcode, and easy checkout with invoice output.

Please include product management with categories, brands, units, and bulk import, plus customer and supplier management. I also need sales, purchases, inventory tracking, low stock alerts, discount and pricing controls, user roles and permissions, and a settings area for things like tax and business preferences. Add reports for sales and inventory so I can see what is happening in the business. Make it look modern and responsive, using the styling from the project where it makes sense.

If you need to check current docs or best practices while building it, go ahead and look them up online.
