Open-source ERP is growing fast across small and mid-sized businesses, and the shortage of developers who can genuinely extend it is severe. This track makes you one of them: framework internals, real implementation practice, and the operational judgement that separates a configurator from an engineer.
What you will be able to do
- Build custom Frappe apps that survive framework upgrades
- Model business processes as doctypes, workflows and permissions
- Migrate legacy data with reconciliation your finance team accepts
- Integrate ERPNext with payment, compliance and logistics systems
- Run a go-live: cutover plan, training, hypercare and rollback
- Diagnose and fix a stalled ERP implementation
Entry expectations

- 02Comfort with the command line
