Deploy OpenBudgeteer with one-click installation.
Open-source bucket budgeting app to take control of your personal finances with a structured, category-based approach.
What you can build with OpenBudgeteer
OpenBudgeteer is a self-hosted personal finance application built on the bucket budgeting principle — inspired by tools like YNAB and Buckets. You assign every dollar of income to specific spending buckets before the month begins, giving you a clear, intentional plan for your money rather than reacting to expenses as they arrive.
Built with .NET and Blazor Server, OpenBudgeteer runs entirely on your own infrastructure so your financial data never touches a third-party cloud. It connects to a PostgreSQL database for durable storage and supports optional authentication to secure access. Featured in the Awesome Self-Hosted list, it is a trusted choice for privacy-conscious users looking for a capable, free alternative to commercial budgeting software.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
