Project mention: Are there any open source projects that need contributors? | /r/opensource | 2023-12-10Check out https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash
I'm surprised that there is no mentions of a great hacker-friendly plain-text accounting software called `ledger` https://ledger-cli.org/ in this thread. It has amazing documentation when it comes to understanding basic principles of double-entry bookkeeping and goes through many typical situations and usecases. There are also several forks, most popular and advanced is `hledger` https://hledger.org/ (h is for Haskell), which provides some neat features out of the box, such as a simple web interface. All of them are very primitive compared to "professional" accounting software, but in return it offers great opportunities for hacking around while ensuring validity of your books.
Project mention: Does anyone know of a "zapper" like portfolio tracker that automatically calculates Profit/Loss? | /r/defi | 2023-12-11That already exists: https://rotki.com/
Check out this : https://github.com/frappe/books - free desktop account software.
https://github.com/frappe/erpnext - free if you host yourself or $10+ if they host it on their server. ERP Software
Both are free. And they are pretty decent.
Project mention: Has anyone tried integrating Bigcapital with Paperless-NGX as a Xero + Hub doc alternative? | /r/selfhosted | 2023-12-09I came across Bigcapital and I haven't tested it out yet but I have used Paperless NGX before. Can the two integrate together?

Project mention: Any steps or way you recommend to upgrade the NPM packages so that projects won't break and can run smoothly after package update? | /r/reactjs | 2023-12-10Repo URL: https://github.com/panshak/accountill
Project mention: EU suggests breaking up Google's ad business in preliminary antitrust ruling | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-14In a project I maintain on billing and payments[1], I had a link to Google Ads API. It was documenting how they had hard-limit budget, with notions like "capped actuals" and "monthly with rollover". The explanation was quite good so I keep it around to explain the concept, and why it was perfect for customers to avoid any surprises.
Then the URL[2] 404'd and the API disappeared. I couldn't find any references to a "BillingCap". I wondered why[3].
Now it makes sense: they got rid of budgets as you explained above. Everything's seems to be obfuscated behind a quite opaque Proposals/Deals[4] data structure now.

I've been preaching to use a simpler accounting system for years and even built my own tool for it: https://github.com/ad-si/Transity
But so far with little success. I think I’m the only active user of Transity.
I use ledger: https://ledger-cli.org/
I believe this same plain text format is used by other tools, which you can find info about here: https://plaintextaccounting.org/ (In particular a lot of people seem to use hledger and beancount)
The ledger is written using a text editor. The purpose of the software is to add everything up, calculate the balances and make sure everything balances. I keep all of my 12 years of accounting in one file and haven't noticed any slowdown. But a real business would surely have many more accounts and may want to split files by financial year or something.
I use helper scripts to convert the data from my bank CSV downloads into ledger format. It uses machine learning to associate payees to accounts (e.g. "Tesco" gets filed to the account "Expenses:Groceries"). I haven't maintained the ML part although it works for me most of the time. In case it's useful, the code is here: https://github.com/georgek/accounts/
Might check out IT Flow. https://itflow.org/
Have you seen https://github.com/howeyc/ledger
