Did you try GnuCash? It's not user friendly but a friend of mine swears by it.

- Rovanion 8y agoI heard there was a more user friendly FLOSS program called Homebank, though I've never used it myself.
- quadrangle 8y agoI prefer (and use) Skrooge https://skrooge.org/ https://skrooge.org/
- geff82 8y agoThis software is slow and a real pain to use for anything else than personal finances or the 12 bills a year you write as a contractor.
- TomK32 8y agoI moved from GnuCash to hledger. And while I did use both for the 26 bills a year I write as a contractor, I also had all my personal finance in both. Expenses are more like 12 or 4 (the big ones) a month and control was really necessary. What you'll like about hledger and legerCLI is a) the undo function of your favourite text editor and b) separate files that you can include into a master c) awesome reports on the terminal.
- PakG1 8y agoTarget user will also be my wife who would really love a super user friendly app. Figure it'd be a good test of my design skills also. I've really only made enterprise stuff in the past where good UI was not really paramount, as long as it was usable. Would love to get better at that too. So this is really just an exercise in my mind at the moment, nothing more.
