My plan for Gnucash

gnucash draft May 27, 2024

This is the beginning of everything!

This is the most recent post

As an overarching portfolio development; and as a nice tribute to the ever useful gnucash accounting application, I am planning to write a web UI for it.

Overall idea

Use the C bindings via Go.
Use Next.js for Frontend
Use Rest API.
Compartmentalize with ephemeral uploads

Usecases

The following are the additional benefits of using a web frontend.

More flexibility on reporting
Larger surface area to experiment on
Demoable; popular domain allows for more participation when shared on HN.
