hledger

Just use hledger, which offers hledger-web, put in online behind a nginx and you are done.

As a bonus, hledger-web makes it possible to also modify data, making it usable alternative to command line tools.

Also noting hledger has a cooler web interface, whereas others built projects with a ledger backend.

The nicest thing about Hledger and the original[1] is the extremely simple file format.

Also by design, hledger is very compatible with a subset of Ledger, so that you can keep journal files that work with both.

Some of hledger's experiments have found their way back into Ledger, also.

I've been meaning to switch to ledger/hledger, which is command line based, but haven't switched yet.

Probably I could have achieved the same result by writing a few plugins for HLedger.

The hledger website makes it hard to find the web interface.

That said, hledger does have features Ledger doesn't (aside from being a haskell project, which I see as a significant long-term feature).

I don't use ledger-cli myself but I do use the similar software hledger.

I've been using and growing hledger steadily since 2007; I just released 0.24 and we are thinking about a 1.0 one of these months.

Do you think recommending hledger as a "real world Haskell program" is a good strategy?

One user said "hledger is an easier-to-use implementation of the ledger accounting system".

There's hledger (a ledger clone of sorts written in haskell)[0], which comes with some facilities for automatically assigning expenses to accounts via "rules files".

Hledger is a great tool for people willing to invest a certain amount of time into learning some new tricks.

Hledger is another implementation in Haskell.
