hledger

hledger is a computer program for easily tracking money, time, or other commodities, using standard accounting principles. It is quite limited in features, but reliable. For some, it is a bare-bones, less complex, less expensive alternative to Quicken or Microsoft Money. hledger is available for free under the GNU General Public License.

hledger aims to help both computer experts and every-day users gain clarity in their finances and time management. I use it every day to:

  • track spending and income
  • see time reports by day/week/month/project
  • get accurate numbers for client billing and tax filing
  • track invoices

The manual and screenshots will explain more. There's also a demo of hledger's web interface. To get started tracking your own numbers, download a copy.

For support and more technical info, see development or email me. I appreciate feedback on all aspects of hledger. Thanks!
