  The plaintextaccounting.org website, a portal to Ledger, hledger, beancount and co. Also the PTA wiki.

  

I use hledger. It's a plain text accounting program (see https://plaintextaccounting.org/) using the double entry book keeping system. Every week I go onto my various banking portals, export my statement as a csv file and then import into hedger using the builtin rules functionality. Then I refine the transactions (add comments, or break down large transactions such as groceries into specific expense categories). You can also setup budgets, forecast balances and income and do currency conversions. If I want a more visual ui I export my ledger to beancount and view through a Web program called fava. If you plan to use it for investing I'd recommend using beancount from the start (it supports it out of the box, I may switch to it later).
