What WYGIWYH actually does
WYGIWYH is a self-hosted finance tracker designed to help you monitor and manage your money and budgets. It provides a centralised interface for recording transactions and reviewing financial standing on your own infrastructure.
Best fit: It is well-suited for individuals wanting a dedicated, self-hosted tool for personal budgeting and transaction tracking under the AGPL-3.0 licence.
Worth knowing: Given the early release version, expect potential API or schema changes, and note that it overlaps heavily with more established open-source personal finance platforms.
Deployment notes
As a Docker-based application written in Python, deployment typically requires persistent volume mounts for database or file storage and a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination.
