Whatup bean counters, I wanted to share something I've been working on that's possible because of how nice and scriptable our favorite plain text accounting tool is.
I've worked on a few iterations of this "dashboard" over the years, and I finally broke down and did it all in HTML + D3.js. I'm really interested in how people visualize their finances, so please share your approaches too! In my experience this is less turn-key than something like Fava, so it's harder to use other people's scripts, and I think there's 2 reasons: 1. Assumptions get baked in (I assume USD, I assume you don't need prices more than once a week, etc). We're all busy. 2. Good visualizations depend on how your ledger is organized, accounts are named, etc. But I still find it really helpful to see what other people are coming up with, so whether it's a complicated Excel sheet, Jupyter notebook, or whatever, please share! And here's the example dashboard/visualizations! <http://aaronstacy.com/personal-finances-dashboard/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
