Under lastCharge anchoring, an everyNMonths cost stepped from the confirmation's exact date even when that date fell earlier in the same month as the slot it claims (e.g. rent for 2026-09 paid 2026-08-28). Since stepFrom normalises through monthOf, that produced the same month as the cursor, which the walk read as "did not advance" and threw — for a completely ordinary early payment. The month-granular step now runs from whichever is later, the cursor or the confirmation's month, so a payment within the same month simply does not rebase. A payment recorded in a LATER month still rebases the series forward, symmetric with the day-granular cap-hit-early behaviour. Also corrects the termination error's message, which claimed a purchase was dated "more than one step earlier" regardless of how early it actually was.
Budget 2.0
A personal budgeting PWA. Envelope-style monthly budgets with rollover, split purchases, finance plans, multi-currency, and JSON/ODS export. All data lives in your browser — there is no server and no account.
Development
bun install
bun run dev # dev server with hot reload, on :3000
bun test # run the test suite
bun run build # production build into dist/
Self-hosting with Docker
docker build -t budget2 .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 budget2
To serve from a subpath, build and run with BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH:
docker build -t budget2 --build-arg BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH=/budget/ .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 -e BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH=/budget/ budget2
GitHub Pages
Pushing to main builds and deploys to Pages automatically, using
/<repository-name>/ as the base path. Enable Pages with "GitHub Actions" as
the source in the repository settings.
Your data
Everything is stored in this browser's IndexedDB. Export regularly from Settings → Your data: the JSON export is both your backup and how you move your budget to another device.
Both destructive actions there — Import, and "Reset everything" — download a backup of your current data before replacing it, and abort if that download fails. Reset puts the app back to a brand-new install: the three starter posts, the DKK/USD/EUR currency table, this month at zero income, no purchases.
Known limitations
- Data is per-browser. There is no account and no sync. If you clear this browser's site data, or move to a different browser or device, your budget is gone unless you exported it first. The JSON export is not just a nice-to-have backup — it is the only way to move a budget between devices.
- Installing and offline use are unverified. The manifest ships the SVG plus 192×192 and 512×512 PNG icons, and the service worker demonstrably installs, activates and precaches every asset — but nobody has yet confirmed that Chrome offers its "Install app" prompt, or loaded the app with the network actually cut. It works as a regular tab regardless.
