That's right - without a backend server, I couldn't think of a great way to manage a private API key. That means that users have to sign up for their own keys (instructions on the "Currency Sync" page under "Setting

Oops - I guess that needs to be better signposted... If you go to the currency page in the dialog (where you're creating USD), there's a "Default Currency" dropdown in the main section on the right. You might need to clo

Nope, no APIs - instead, I've focussed on a smooth workflow for statement uploads and options for manual transaction reporting. I actually had a look around for APIs, and couldn't find anything that fitted with what I was trying t

That's interesting - I haven't seen errors in quite a while (on Firefox), and I've been using it myself for a few months. What are you doing just before it crashes?

Honestly, I haven't really got as far as a license for the code yet - I don't know much about them, and people seem to have strong opinions about the standard options for OSS. I'd be interested in what folks recommend for som

It's looking at the width, so that some fixed-width elements don't run into each other and wreck the display - if you expand the window a little it should work as expected. For what it's worth, I'm also running Firefox o

I definitely get the annoyance. The problem is, a mobile version of this is a very different thing, to the point that it's essentially a completely new app. Displaying a broken interface just to display something isn't helpful, ev

Hey HN - long time lurker etc. First off - I know, another personal finance app. However, I found none of the existing options matched what I wanted for myself: * Privacy-first - ideally a local app, and definitely no cloud storage of bank
