Akaunting - Free Accounting Software
-
ONLINE ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE FOR BUSINESSES.
From invoicing to expense tracking to accounting, Akaunting has all the tools you need to manage your money online, for free.
-
What would be the best first steps to help start the ball rolling on getting even an unstable variant of Akaunting working?
-
@jimcavoli Someone would need to build a test app using cloudron standards for Docker and Ubuntu.
Funding might help as well to get a dev to even take a look.
-
@nebulon I tried a bunch of Accounting software and Akaunting was in my top 5 but Invoice Ninja and Kimai2 are better and already in Cloudron. You will use Akaunting or it's just to add another apps ?
-
@JOduMonT as I understand it the goal is for Cloudron to have the top 3 apps per app category

yes I do understand that too, but if nobody use or will use it, should we not focus on another category
-
So far, the main way we figure how to package is go to the app wish list category and sort by most voted. We know this has a couple of pitfalls - a) only 20% of actual cloudron users are on this forum. we haven't figured out how to get people to join this forum
Most people don't even know about it, it seems. b) the upvote button is not very obvious in nodebb. We wanted to spend some time making that a little more prominent.

Email all subscribers with subject "Which apps do you want in Cloudron?" or similar and direct people to the App wishlist? Include screenshot of upvote button. Do this once a quarter?

20% is very good
marketing say pat your the back when you are around 10% of response
I just discover theDeveloping an app that can be packaged for Cloudron? Get a free license with our App Developer Programthat should also have more drive than a small emphasisSurvey by email will make only your crowd annoyed and you being mark as a spammer.

Taiga or Loomio are good apps for that but if Cloudron have already have a "hard time" to drag people to vote via the forum adding another layer/application is not the solution
invitation, incentive and education are

Which apps do you want in Cloudron?
I'm might be an unusual but when it come time to choose an application I do my little data mining such as
- I start alternativeto.net to see the score of the apps
- than look for the same apps on https://www.libhunt.com
- than if I'm not convince I'll search through similar project such as yunohost, linuxserver, freedombox, caprover, ...
I really like how yunohost and linuxserver present their data
it give you an overview of what is well maintained and the quality of it.
My point is, more focusing on viable projects and less on what the user

The Cloudron Devs only include apps that are actively maintained anyway.
And yes, I really like how some of those sites make it easy to compare projects too.
-
@murgero Lets say I have the funding, but no coding experience. How might I connect with the developer?
-
@will you can contact cloudron support (or discuss here) for the cloudron app.if you wan the akaunting devs to do work on the cloudron app, you can probably find contact details on their github or website.
-
Hey guys,
We're currently packaging Akaunting for Cloudron so stay tuned

It does seem to me (just looking at the website) that Akunting does more that Invoice ninja and Kimai in terms of managing your overall finance whereas the others are more specifically about managing invoices / time-keeping / Projects, is that right?

Naked Akunting don't really do more than Invoice Ninja, probably less
Almost every addons https://akaunting.com/apps have a price.

hi, please can you do a tutorial to create a page in akounting and fill it

Akaunting looks worthwhile as an alternative to Xero (with a migration tool) or Quickfile.
Can't see automated Bank & Card statement importing though unless anyone knows otherwise?
Xero as a bridge could but that's purchasing the plugin and maintaining a Xero subscription.
Odoo Accounting or ERPNext the best FOSS I know of for interest, so I'd still have those higher up the Wishlist TBH.
