  You say spreadsheets are not contenders, but I will still offer Tiller: https://tillerhq.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

• any automated tools to pull bank/credit card data?

  Tiller (tillerhq.com) does this for $80/year. It downloads into a spreadsheet that also provides budgeting -- but you can do whatever you want with the data. I'm happy with it for multiple accounts and credit cards. Source: about 2 years ago

• Spreadsheets Are Hot–and Cranking Out Complex Code

• Best way to track the totality of all your finances (in one place)?

  Tiller. tillerhq.com connects to your accounts and fills in the line items into a gsheet or excel for you. Once there, they have templates to use or you can roll your own in spreadsheets.

• YNAB Alternative

  I use a software called Tiller. It links to Google Sheets and then feeds your bank info in. It has worked fantastic for 4+ years.

• Double-Entry Bookkeeping as a Directed Graph

  I'm surprised that there is no mentions of a great hacker-friendly plain-text accounting software called `ledger` https://ledger-cli.org/ in this thread. It has amazing documentation when it comes to understanding basic principles of double-entry bookkeeping and goes through many typical situations and usecases.

• GnuCash Tutorial and Concepts Guide

  If it helps anyone, I wrote a blog post[0] (based on this comment[1]) explaining how double-entry accounting works.

• Accounting for Computer Scientists – Martin Kleppmann's Blog

  I learnt all of this by using ledger[0] and, of course, reading its manual. I've been maintaining my own accounts for more than a decade now. It's fun being able to plot my overall wealth and expenses over time. [0] https://ledger-cli.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
