MakerQueue — Production Queue Manager

A real-time production queue visualization tool — engineered to track, reorder, and sync made-to-order manufacturing SLAs with Shopify.

MakerQueue — Production Queue Manager

Problem

Craftline manufacturers lacked visibility into their production floors, making it impossible to reorder queues based on promised delivery dates. The challenge: manual queue management via spreadsheets caused constantly missed SLAs and disjointed communication between the floor and customer support.

Architecture & Solution

// System Pipeline

A Remix and TypeScript application providing real-time WebSocket updates. It features a drag-and-drop React interface for queue manipulation. The backend calculates SLA due-date conflicts on every move and synchronizes fulfillment status directly back to the Shopify order via API webhooks.

Implementation Decisions

  1. Real-time state synchronization — WebSocket integration ensures that queue changes made by one floor operator instantly reflect across all workstations.
  2. Algorithmic conflict resolution — Drag-and-drop reordering automatically calculates and flags downstream SLA violations before the move is finalized.
  3. Bidirectional order syncing — Pushing production status directly to Shopify ensures customer support teams have accurate fulfillment data without leaving their dashboard.
