OpenBudgeteer

OpenBudgeteer is a self-hosted web application designed for managing personal finances. It implements the bucket budgeting principle to help users allocate funds into specific categories or buckets for organized spending and saving.

The software is deployed as a server application and can be run using Docker with a MariaDB database. Users access the interface through a web browser to track their money and manage their financial allocations.
