Summary

Ocular is a small budgeting app as an alternative to Google sheet's annual budget planner. Its goal is not to track individual expenses, work with multiple currencies at a time or anything related (if you're looking for something like this, check out firefly-iii).

This app comes with its own backend (by using genesis), so the only thing you need to do is to host it somewhere. Your data stays on your server and is not shared with anyone else.

Setup

Development

1. Make sure you have the latest node LTS installed.
2. Install pnpm via npm i -g pnpm.
3. Clone this repository.
4. Run pnpm install in the root directory.
5. Copy the .env.example to .env, you can leave the default values.
6. Start the backend with pnpm run genesis.
7. Start the frontend with pnpm run dev.
8. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

Note

To modify the backend, head over to genesis.

Production

This app is deployed using docker-compose. See ocular-docker for deployment.
