Hello David, thanks for the interest!
Linux is definitely coming. Cashdera is built with Tauri v2, which
supports cross-platform builds, so it is more a matter of prioritization
than technical impossibility.
For the MVP, I started with Windows because that is my own environment
,and I wanted to validate the product before maintaining three platform
builds. But I've already heard the Linux question from several people,
so it moves up the priority list.
My current plan:
1. Stabilize Windows beta based on real book feedback (next 2-4 weeks).
2. Linux build (2-3 weeks after that).
3. macOS if enough demand.
I'll announce it here and on r/GnuCash when the Linux beta is ready.
In the meantime, if you have a Windows machine for testing or can share
feedback on the architecture/import process, that would be very helpful
for the foundation both platforms will use.
Thanks,
Ars

Hello,
I built a Windows desktop beta called Cashdera as an independent
analytics companion for GnuCash.
It opens an existing .gnucash file, imports it into a local SQLite
cache, and shows analytics such as:
- monthly cashflow
- category trends
- Sankey money flow
- transaction search
- budget vs actual
- net worth timeline
- year-over-year comparison
- CSV/PDF report export
The goal is not to replace GnuCash. It is a read-only analytics layer
on top of an existing GnuCash book. The source GnuCash file is not
modified.
Privacy/safety notes:
- local desktop app
- no account
- no cloud upload
- no telemetry
- independent project, not affiliated with GnuCash
- Windows-only beta
- unsigned installer, with SHA256 checksums in the GitHub release
- please test on a backup/copy first
GitHub public beta release:
https://github.com/proars/Cashdera/releases/tag/v0.1.0
Screenshots:

I would appreciate feedback from experienced GnuCash users,
especially:
1. import issues with real books
2. calculation mismatches compared with GnuCash reports
3. reports/workflows that are missing
Thank you,
Ars
