Thank you! This looks like a really neat framework to get finance data into an easily digestible format. I'm still in the early stages of trying to implement some sort of monthly "state of our finances" report I can send to or share with my wife. (She's not a nerd, and doesn't need or care about many of Fava's features.) Something like this looks just about perfect.
