Finances are hard. It's one of the first adulting things everyone has to wrestle with. So, let's make it easy and automate it. Over the course of several years, my wife and I have tracked our finances using a forecasting method and had done it all within a spreadsheet. The time came where I wanted to take this concept and make it mobile using serverless architecture and clean design.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

Installing and Running

  1. Clone the repo.
  2. Run npm install to cover any dependencies.

Common Issues:

If installation isn't working for you, check the following:

  1. Your version of node (v 8.x.x) & npm(vā€¦

Right now, it's just me, but I could use some help if you're willing. I've never truly done a serious open-source project before so I'm not sure where to start to make sure it's successful. Any tips?

If you're interested in pitching in, sweet. The most I can offer is just some exposure to cool things like serverless architecture, multi-platform development, clean design, and a LOT of opinions.

I have some issues created now to outline some features, but I could use some help in documentation, building out the API on AWS, and then the beast that will be the client.

Please comment below if you're interested in what should be a fun project!
