About the Expense Tracker
The expense tracker lets you log each purchase with a short note, an amount and a category. It adds everything up for the current month, shows how much goes to each category and compares the total with a monthly budget that you set.
Your list is saved in this browser on this device, so it is still there when you come back. Nothing is sent to a server and no account is needed. Because the data lives only in your browser, clearing site data removes it, so use the CSV export to keep a copy.
The budget bar stays green while you are under 80 percent of the budget, turns amber from 80 percent and red once you go over. It is a simple early warning, not a replacement for a full budgeting plan.
How to use it
Add an expense. Type a short note, enter the amount and pick a category.
Set a monthly budget. Enter what you plan to spend this month and watch the bar.
Review the month. Check the total, the category bars and the recent list. Delete anything entered by mistake.
Export a copy. Download the month as a CSV file if you want to keep it or open it in a spreadsheet.
Worked example: three expenses against a 1,500 budget
Total spent: $199.19 Left in budget: $1,300.81 Budget used: 13 percent, so the bar stays green
Tips for good results
- Log expenses the same day, while you still remember them.
- Set a budget you can keep, then adjust it after one month of real data.
- Review the biggest category each week. It is usually where the easiest saving is.
- Export a CSV at month end before you clear anything.
Common mistakes
- Forgetting small daily purchases, which add up.
- Clearing browser data without exporting first.
- Entering a monthly bill as a daily one.
