Pécule (French for "nest egg") is a free, open source
desktop application for tracking personal bank accounts and household budgets
on Windows 10 and 11. It stores everything in a local SQLite file: no account
to create, no cloud, no connection to your bank.
Features include reconciliation, recurring transactions, monthly and yearly
budget tracking with charts, CSV import of bank statements, QIF import to
carry over history from another program (Money, Quicken, GnuCash, HomeBank),
and local backups. The app tracks one account per data file.
Please note: the user interface and the CSV import format are French only.
