Hi HN, creator of Wealthfolio here.

A year ago, I posted the first version. Since then, the app has matured significantly with two major updates:

1. Multi-platform Support: Now available on Mobile (iOS), Desktop (macOS, Windows, Linux), and as a Self-hosted Docker image. (Android coming soon).

2. Addons System: We added explicit support for extensions so you can hack around, vibe code your own integrations, and customize the app to fit your needs.

The core philosophy remains the same: Always private, transparent, and open source.

Looks heavily inspired by Wealthsimple

Haha, I'm a big user and fan of Wealthsimple :) I created the app initially to have a unique experience for all my other accounts in other banks. I took inspiration from other fintechs as well.

Does that mean if one's investments are mostly with Wealthsimple that it'll be easy to set up?

How do the integrations work, is it all file (csv) based or is there direct access as well?

from the docs:

"Wealthfolio does not currently support integration with online brokers or aggregators. Data must be imported from CSV files or by manually entering transactions."

So data has to be imported since the start then I'm assuming, like a complete ledger? Otherwise how would we know the complete list and the value of the investments over time. Won't that get out of sync with the ground truth (what's in the account) over time?

For now, it's CSV and manual editing using the UI. I'm looking to have direct integration with major brokers when possible to avoid third-party aggregators and managing users' data/credentials (or at least have the option to).

Really interested in how you do this. When I as looking into building my own finance-related app, you have to pay a ton to get market data (stocks, crypto, ETFs, options) and connecting bank accounts if it's not for individual use (you still have to pay for individual use, but not significantly as much).

You can also start from one snapshot of your current holdings and just add transactions as you go to build the timeline.

This would be amazing, though I realize it's not straightforward and not easy to do. I have so many accounts across different companies that this connection piece is basically a requirement for me to use your app on a regular basis. I'm sure that applies to a lot of people, and I'm sure you already know that. I appreciate the focus on building the tool first and then getting that connection stuff working later.

I just want to also commend you on the UI/UX here, it looks and feels really solid.
