I’ve been self-hosting Firefly III [1] for a few years. It’s a little quirky, but ultimately it’s been very effective for me as a freelancer. I’d be interested in what others are using, I’m sure a search of Ask HN would probably turn up some routine discussions.
I agree with the first comment, some screenshots and set of initial releases would help. I don’t know exactly what else to suggest, but as it stands the idea piqued my interest, but the repo’s README didn’t convince me to expend the effort to build it myself and try it out, so consider the aforementioned screenshots, maybe loosen up some of the overly formal language, describe the mechanics of the project and how it solves the problems you experienced in more specific ways, what kind of ergonomics you employed to facilitate good habits and reliable utility—a tracking tool is only as good as the info you supply, so does it encourage the user to make routine entries and is that routine usage as simple and smooth as possible?
I'm glad it piqued your interest and thank you for the suggestions, as for screenshots I will work on that, as for releases, some are up now but no binary yet
No releases or screenshots is the fastest way for people to not be interested in checking our your project further esp since it's not a novel app/idea.
Well, thank you for the comment, I do agree that the idea isn't novel in itself
but what I'd convince you is, is the approach and library choices
however regarding screenshots, I shall prepare, so thank you for the suggestion, in the mean time though I had a video documenting how to use the former version (v2.0) you can find it by rolling back to the previous commit, along with user documentation
