About Cashew

Cashew is a budgeting app for recording purchases, managing budgets and keeping track of personal finances. It is built with Flutter, using Drift for local SQL storage and Firebase for syncing, so the same app runs across several devices.

Development started in September 2021 and the repository has more than 900 commits and a beta testing program. It suits people who want a free, open-source alternative to commercial budget apps.

Strengths

  • Open source with an active history of commits
  • Local SQL storage with optional Firebase sync
  • Cross-device Flutter app

Limitations

  • Maintained mainly by a single developer
  • Sync relies on Firebase
