Common questions

How do I make Budgero sync work when accessed through a LAN IP, domain, or reverse proxy?

Set WEBSOCKET_ALLOWED_ORIGINS to the exact origin used to open Budgero, including scheme, host, and port. The sync WebSocket rejects other origins.

Where is Budgero budget data stored in a self-hosted deployment?

Data lives in SQLite on the client browser via WASM and syncs end-to-end encrypted through the Go backend. The self-host build ships as a single Go binary with SQLite storage.

What ports are used during local Budgero development?

The frontend is served at localhost port 5173 and the API at localhost port 3001.

Does self-hosted Budgero include the full feature set?

Yes, the self-hosted offering is described as the full feature set and free forever.
