Playing with #beancount and its web interface #fava to keep track of our little magic club finances. Nice and simple for our few transactions I think. Might be annoying if it’s only on my laptop though so may have to sync it somewhere. 🤔
I was looking at self hosted software options but I think they might be overkill.

I wanted to share this gem that @adam shared with me!

To be clear, #ActualBudget was REALLY getting good when I left - felt like jumping ship right as it hit its stride
They've added custom reports with Excel-style formulas, a burndown chart, and the UI keeps improving. Genuinely great #opensource budgeting software
But as a #SoftwareEngineer, the scriptability of #beancount is a huge win. I can pipe data through #fzf for fuzzy account selection, write #Python scripts that understand my finances, and build weird custom tools that would be impossible in a GUI app
Sometimes you just need to "grep" your money
#plainTextAccounting #CLI #devTools #personalFinance #fava #budgeting
Made the switch from #ActualBudget to #beancount for my personal finances
The ecosystem is nice
- #fava, #beangulp for imports, #beanahead for recurring transactions, #favaCustomDashboards for charts, and #favaInvestor for portfolio tracking
Also went overboard with custom stuff:
- PDF importers with #ML payee/account prediction
- Custom linters for validation
- Forked #favaEnvelope for envelope budgeting
- #Makefile with 28 targets for price fetching to #FIRE calcs
#plainTextAccounting is great when you can just write #Python to solve your edge cases
#personalFinance #doubleEntryAccounting #CLI #fintech #devlife
any #beancount or #fava users here? i’ve been wrestling with a fava-envelope bug for days and unfortunately, i think i’ve hit the upper ceiling of my limited python ability 😭 this is the issue i’ve filed on the repo if anyone’s able to help: https://github.com/polarmutex/fava-envelope/issues/107 i’d be eternally grateful
the initial installation simply fails, what i’ve had success doing is building from source in a virtual environment (homebred-installed python). the plugin registers but doesn’t render any information
hopefully fosstodon gets this to the right people! thanks so much in advance 🙏
