ezBookkeeping

Introduction

ezBookkeeping is a lightweight, self-hosted personal finance app with a user-friendly interface and powerful bookkeeping features. It helps you record daily transactions, import data from various sources, and quickly search and filter your bills. You can analyze historical data using built-in charts or perform custom queries with your own chart dimensions to better understand spending patterns and financial trends. ezBookkeeping is easy to deploy, and you can start it with just one single Docker command. Designed to be resource-efficient, it runs smoothly on devices such as Raspberry Pi, NAS, and MicroServers.

ezBookkeeping offers tailored interfaces for both mobile and desktop devices. With support for PWA (Progressive Web Apps), you can even add it to your mobile home screen and use it like a native app.
