plain-text-accounting

Plain text accounting is a way of doing bookkeeping and accounting with plain text files

and scriptable, command-line-friendly software, such as

Ledger, hledger, or

Beancount.

Benefits include version control, scriptability, data portability and privacy.

See https://plaintextaccounting.org and https://wiki.plaintextaccounting.org for more details.
