About Firefly III
Firefly III is a free, open-source, self-hosted manager for personal finances. It uses double-entry bookkeeping to track expenses, income, budgets, categories, and tags across your accounts, and it can import data from many banks and generate detailed financial reports and forecasts. Because it runs on your own server, your financial records stay private, making it a fit for people who want insight and control over their money without a cloud subscription.
