Pachira

Welcome to Pachira, a personal finance application.

I have been using Quicken for many years. I started writing Pachira with the intention to replace Quicken. So far, for my personal need, I can say I have achieved that purpose. I have tested it by running in parallel with Quicken for a few years. In the meantime, I am continuously working on Pachira to add more functionality and making it more useful.

Pachira is an application written in JavaFX. It runs with Java 11 (or newer) with JavaFX runtime.
