# Self-hosted personal finance and budgeting apps

A personal finance app sees every payment you make. Running one yourself keeps that record on a machine you control, and the app keeps working for as long as you want it.

Actual Budget is a local-first tool for envelope budgeting that syncs your changes between devices. Sure is a community fork of Maybe Finance, with a dashboard of cashflow, net worth and spending, used in the browser or its apps. Firefly III is a personal finance manager built on double-entry bookkeeping, with budgets, categories, tags, rules for transactions, and income and expense reports.
