Actual is a local-first personal finance tool. It is 100% free and open-source, written in NodeJS, it has a synchronization element so that all your changes can move between devices without any heavy lifting.

If you are only interested in running the latest version and not contributing to the source code, you don't need to clone this repo. You can get the latest version through npm.
The easiest way to get Actual running is to use the [actual-server](https://github.com/actualbudget/actual-server) project. That is the server for syncing changes across devices, and it comes with the latest version of Actual. The server will provide both the web project and a server for syncing.
You can get up and running quickly and easily by following our [Running Actual Locally Guide](https://actualbudget.github.io/docs/Installing/Local/your-own-machine)
We have a wide range of documentation on how to use Actual, this is all available in our [Community Documentation](https://actualbudget.github.io/docs), this includes topics on Budgeting, Account Management, Tips & Tricks and some documentation for developers.
