Show HN: ExpenseOwl – simple and beautiful self-hostedexpense tracker
This reminds me of Kanboard in how focused and simple it is: https://kanboard.org
That's a really good thing, you don't always need heavyweight solutions with bunches of features that love to eat a lot of RAM (and CPU), sometimes a simpler option is fully sufficient.
Especially because this one doesn't try to tackle complex problems like auth, if it's for personal use, you can just put basicauth (over TLS), mTLS, OIDC or whatever your heart desires in front of it.

jQuery UI
I've been using the likes of PrimeVue (https://primevue.org/), PrimeReact (https://primereact.org/) and PrimeNG (https://primeng.org/) because they attempt to give you a library of components that work well out of the box and have a similar API across multiple technologies: Vue, React and Angular, respectively.
I feel like at some point I'll probably make a project with just jQuery and possibly jQuery UI for the sake of it, since what's there doesn't seem too flashy, but would probably work just fine for most we based CRUD needs. I might end up rediscovering up close why people moved to the above in droves instead of jQuery, but honestly something that you just drop in and that works has a lot of appeal. No complex toolchains, no configuring a bunch of plugins and registering them with the app, no endless abstractions for state management and things about render loops to keep in mind, just a silly JS import and writing some shlocky code that still sorta works.
I like to consider the UI of Kanboard as a good example. It's minimalist, but works great for what it is: https://kanboard.org/

Elegant open source project tracking, Trello like but self-hosted
For someone that's not a web developer, I found Kanboard to be the easiest to set up, and it has all the basic features you'd expect. It's a traditional PHP app where you copy the files to your web server and set a few configuration options and you're good. If you want to use it locally, you download it, run php -S localhost:8080, and start using it.

Note: The project is in maintenance mode, it hasn't shut down or been abandoned.

Ask HN: Anybody used Retool for production, user-facing app?
Retool is not designed for external use cases. Better going with a tool like Bubble or a low code platform that doesn't have an end-user license.
I'm the cofounder of Budibase. An open source alt to Retool. You could try the open source plan:
