I was running a local instance of https://firefly-iii.org for a while, even wrote some scripts to export my bank's statements to a csv then import them to firefly

Sadly, a recent firefly update corrupted the db somehow and I haven't had time to figure it out

There are of course a ton of personal finance app out there, but I haven't found one that seems trustworthy and connects to my (chilean) bank

Firefly looks great. Maybe I could windup an simple instance at work. Y saludos compatriotas xd

Yeah, it's pretty easy to spin up, but honestly I am thinking of looking for a hosted solution, don't want to deal with the updates anymore

I’ve found YNAB super helpful: https://www.youneedabudget.com/

@UCHV4JZ7A The pricing may be too much but I’ll try it anyway. If it’s THAT good then I think it’s worth it.

I started using Actual recently, I’ve enjoyed it so far: https://actualbudget.com/

it is local first, fully encrypted app that syncs across macOS / Windows / iPhones

And Linux, too :D looks nice, will give it a try

nvm, it says linux, but there is no linux download link :(

I use GnuCash, supports all the formats your bank exports. Offline. It’s powerful but difficult to use initially

> all the formats your bank exports sadly my bank is prehistoric, it only exports poorly formatted PDFs :(

I might be switching banks

@pablore BCI apparently offers a "Mis Finanzas" app, do you have any experience with that?

@U0FTV149X I don’t know it, maybe is only for BCI clients?

^ @U5WAJK60M this is what I meant for fulcro RAD

Yeah I love that, but ime docker on mac has way to slow IO. So for clojurescript things reading all those namespaced js files from a docker container was slowing down my dev process by a factor of 4

@U5WAJK60M that's why you should use volumes and mount them to the local file system

(fwiw I'm also running docker compose with a fairly heavy application including elasticsearch on mac)

and what sean is saying: run the Clojure stuff outside of the containers, only the other stuff like Datomic inside

just an idea 😉

ah check, I’ll play around with that

someday 🙂

@seancorfield the clojure process is running outside of docker, but all database stuff is running in docker, one container for one project?

Yes, Clojure stuff outside Docker, everything else inside. Databases, search engines, etc.

I like to have a complete system with docker compose, but have the defaults of the parts in such a way it can use the rest of the dockerized stuff when running loccaly. So typiccaly I first do a docker compose up, docker stop of the service I want to do development on, and start that one locally.

in combination with docker-compose, I also use this: https://www.portainer.io/ super easy for inspecting logs, connecting to a container terminal, etc

@U26FJ5FDM Ah, so you also run other (Clojure) services in Docker? We run them all up inside a single JVM instance in the REPL. For testing, we often spin up whole clusters of processes on different local ports so they can communicate -- and we're still in the REPL so everything is easy to modify on the fly.

That's what I like loccaly. But that's also because often I'm comparing several implementations. When you have to many services to run them all in docker it makes a lot of sence to run them in one JVM. Currently at work it's not feasable anymore to run the whole platform locally. So most times locally we just run one, and use integration tests to have some certainty it will work together..

Yeah, I can't run our whole stack on my casual laptop (but it isn't intended to be a work machine), only on my powerful desktop.

https://github.com/DomainDrivenArchitecture/ might be of interest

https://pragprog.com/book/swdddf/domain-modeling-made-functional I like this one a lot. It's aimed at F# but the author does compare it to OOP and demonstrates the advantages.
