ExpenSys

ExpenSys is an efficient expense tracking application designed to help you manage your finances and maintain a detailed record of your expenses. Whether you are an individual looking to budget your personal finances or a business owner tracking expenses, ExpenSys streamlines the process for you.

Intuition

I found it challenging to track my daily expenses using traditional methods such as Google Spreadsheets or existing expense management apps. They often lacked the flexibility and data organization I needed. As a result, I decided to develop ExpenSys to address these issues and create a more user-friendly expense tracking solution. Please feel free to submit feature requests or pull requests; I'm open to accommodating them in future releases.

ExpenSys offers several key features to enhance your expense tracking experience:

Expense Logging

  • Users can easily log their daily expenses into the system, providing a detailed record of their spending.

Monthly Reports

  • Generate monthly reports based on your spending, allowing you to track your financial habits over time.

Categorization

  • Expenses are categorized into main categories, including "Essential", "Expense", and "Loss of Money". Users can also view monthly reports based on these categories.

Subcategories

  • Subcategories provide more granularity, such as "Groceries", "Vegetables & Fruits", "Outside Food", "Salon", "Transport", "Medical", "Shopping", and "Loss of Money". These subcategories are displayed alongside their respective main categories.
