And there will never be one. Not too long ago I actually gave this a try. Tried to coordinate with my bank's managers and everything. I didn't even intend to publish the result, I just didn't want to use the bank's shitty apps anymore. Turns out that in order to touch the banking system you need an actual company with special permission from the central bank.
