Firefly Mark III is a new version of Firefly built upon best practices and lessons learned
|
|
from building [Firefly](https://github.com/JC5/Firefly). It's Mark III since the original Firefly never made it outside of my
|
|
laptop and [Firefly II](https://github.com/JC5/Firefly) is live.
|
|
|
|
## Current features
|
|
|
|
- [A double-entry bookkeeping system](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-entry_bookkeeping_system).
|
|
- You can store, edit and remove withdrawals, deposits and transfers. This allows you full financial management;
|
|
- It's possible to create, change and manage money using _budgets_;
|
|
- Organize transactions using categories;
|
|
- Save towards a goal using piggy banks;
|
|
- Predict and anticipate large expenses using "repeated expenses" (ie. yearly taxes);
|
|
- Predict and anticipate bills using "recurring transactions" (rent for example).
|
|
|
|
Everything is organised:
|
|
|
|
- Clear views that should show you how you're doing;
|
|
- Easy navigation through your records;
|
|
- Browse back and forth to see previous months or even years;
|
|
- Lots of help text in case you don't get it;
|
|
- Lots of charts because we all love them.
|
|
|
|
## Changes
|
|
|
|
Firefly III will feature, but does not feature yet:
|
|
|
|
- Financial reporting showing you how well you are doing;
|
|
- More control over other resources outside of personal finance
|
|
- Accounts shared with a partner (household accounts)
|
|
- Debts
|
|
- Credit cards
|
|
- More test-coverage (aka: actual test coverage);
|
|
- Firefly will be able to split transactions; a single purchase can be split in multiple entries, for more fine-grained control.
|
|
- Firefly will be able to join transactions.
|
|
- Transfers and transactions are combined into one internal datatype which is more consistent with what you're actually doing: moving money from A to B. The fact that A or B or both are yours should not matter.
|
|
- Any other features I might not have thought of.
|
|
|
|
Some stuff has been removed:
|
|
|
|
- The nesting of budgets, categories and beneficiaries is removed because it was pretty pointless.
|
|
- Firefly will not encrypt the content of the (MySQL) tables. Old versions of Firefly had this capability but it sucks when searching, sorting and organizing entries.
|
|
|
|
## Current state
|
|
I have the basics up and running. Test coverage is currently non-existent.
|
|
|
|
Although I have not checked extensively, some forms and views have CSRF vulnerabilities. This is because not all
|
|
views escape all characters by default. Will be fixed.
|
|
|
|
The current layout / look & feel is a pretty basic Bootstrap3 template. I am currently working on a more consistent,
|
|
expanded layout which will feature shiny AJAX things and data tables and all the Web 3.0 goodies you've come to expect
|
|
from social media sites.
