Introduction

Wicker Money is a self-hostable personal finance app, built as a thin core plus installable plugins.

The core owns identity, money movement and the app shell. Everything that interprets money — budgets, forecasting, net worth, FIRE planning, importers — is a plugin built against @wickermoney/plugin-sdk. A fresh install is useful on its own; bundled plugins ship enabled but hold no privileges a third-party plugin couldn't also request.

Pre-1.0, single maintainer

Wicker Money is pre-1.0 and has one maintainer (Jeremy). Some of what's on this site describes where a piece of self-hosting is headed rather than a polished, battle-tested path — that's called out explicitly wherever it applies. See the roadmap for what's shipped versus planned.

Where to go next​

  • Self-hosting — run your own instance with Docker.
  • Contributing — set up a dev environment and understand how the codebase is laid out.
  • API reference — endpoint reference (in progress).

License​

The application (apps/*) and bundled plugins (plugins/*) are AGPL-3.0-only. plugin-sdk and ui-kit — the surface a plugin is built against — are Apache-2.0, which is what makes an independently-built, non-bundled plugin possible to license on its own terms. See the architecture overview for why that split exists.
