## What it is
A progressive web application expense tracker built in React that uses Google Sheets as its storage backend. It is a static HTML app that works well on mobile and can be deployed anywhere.

## Use cases
- track personal expenses in a google sheet
- self-hosted expense tracker with privacy
- manage multiple accounts and spending categories
- share expense tracking with a partner
- install a mobile pwa for budgeting
- see monthly spending summaries

## When to choose
- you want your financial data stored in your own Google Sheet instead of a third-party database
- you want a lightweight static app you can deploy anywhere with HTTPS
- you want a mobile-friendly PWA with material design
- you want easy sharing by granting Google Sheets access

## When to avoid
- you need a native mobile app with offline-first sync
- you don't want to depend on Google Sheets or a Google account
- you need advanced budgeting, reporting, or bank import features
- you want a backend with user authentication beyond Google Sheets sharing
