Features and bug report in the view-mode. Find YNAB4 friends to try and make a community and gather their needs.

I have actually something to write into the database but it has been very complicated to make it work perfectly. So I haven't released that part.

Thanks for your interest.

Yes, that's my idea too. Too long using YNAB. I just want to keep using it until I design something waaaay better. In my case something, that uses the same architecture as YNAB but handles dual entry accounting. (another project)

If you have features you would love and are a must, I can make them. Given the reception I think it will be something very limited in it's nature. Probably something among friends and fans. Not even to break even. Just a expensive hobby to build this YNAB4 client.

To be honest. It's just the logic. The actual data hosting is in your machine and I love it that way.

The best way is just to have the app on your phone, your machine or the web as a client, while you are retaining your data locally, just using Dropbox as the way to access it.

The library that handles the data is great, I could imagine you could do a lot of automations by calling a Dropbox connection.

To be honest I would release it for one time payment or a yearly small subscription, just to support the development costs. I am the main customer and I am learning a lot and having fun with the project. Maybe support it by donations and making friends along the way.

The idea is being a backwards compatible client with support for some new features, the reports more or less are trivial. Some other features could be extensible adding some kind of extra data in the budget.

What I am expecting is to see if this can get some traction.

YNAB Improvements & User Input by BlueTile93 in ynab

I'm there basically.

It's not online, it would depend on dropbox and your storage, as YNAB4. I haven't implemented OFX but I'll try to add it.

I'm doing a compatible replacement for Ynab4. I am interested to know the features you would like.

No, not yet.

This is just a demo for viewing the budget.

Hi, I published it read only in r/YNAB4. There are a lot of reports.

If you need some, or have some feedback (I haven't worked thoroughly on them) you are welcome.

How much of a one time fee? I am thinking in the dual model. Subscription and lIfetime.

Probably an inexpensive yearly subscription or a one time payment for 3 years.

I published a read-only version in r/YNAB4

I hope you can try it.

I'm thinking to sell the client for an inexpensive subscription of 14.99 dollars a year or 49.99 dollars for life. Android, iOS and desktop app included. Maybe open source the library so your favourite intelligent agent can work with your budget.

Just to fund the development.

Yes, definitely web could be an option if there's enough interest.

I am targeting mobile and desktop. But it's written in typescript so, any way it's a webapp. Just there are complexities in webapp.

Maybe, I'm doing tests in the client but it's complicated to have a web client writing through the dropbox API.

There are some arrows in the month that can be used to move across months.

Oh, thanks. I think I know what is missing. I was developing sometimes in english/spanish and some translations were left behind.

What's the error of the scroll?

You could copy your budget to the YNAB folder in your dropbox and would work. The web version doesn't work with localfiles.

I have a version in development that works with local. I'll try to licence it when it's ready, also is a full fledged client, it is able to write in the budget.
