Why it was saved

  • @GithubProjects, 19 July 2025: A real, self-hostable open-source alternative to paid finance trackers (Mint-style), notable both as a usable tool and for its polished product design including a built-in AI assistant ('Hey Josh! I'm an AI built by Maybe...') that offers suggested prompts: 'Evaluate investment portfolio', 'Show spending insights', 'Find unusual patterns', plus command access via '/'.
