Personal Finance is a Ruby on Rails application to keep track of finances in USD.
I built this for myself because other apps are either too complex for my needs (Firefly III), privacy-invasive (Mint), or have a subscription-based business model (Copilot Money). I also don't like connecting my financial accounts to third party sites for security reasons, so this is a manual approach to tracking money. Since I built this for myself, it's a highly opinionated way of tracking finances.
You can run this application locally using Docker.
Clone this repo and cd into it. Then build the Docker image:
docker build -t personal-finance .Start up a container from the previously created image while specifying port 3000:
docker run -p 3000:3000 personal-finance:latestThen browse to http://0.0.0.0:3000/.
