User clarification on the "too big edit icon" finding: the header
Edit button itself (not its icon) is what felt wrong. Investigation
showed the wider Sure pattern.
Every other "Edit" affordance in Sure lives inside a DS::Menu kebab:
- app/views/categories/_category.html.erb
- app/views/rules/_rule.html.erb
- app/views/family_merchants/_family_merchant.html.erb
- app/views/chats/_chat_nav.html.erb
- app/views/accounts/show/_menu.html.erb
- app/views/transactions/show.html.erb
Header rows reserve top-level buttons for primary actions (e.g.
"New transaction", "Record pledge"). The goal show page was the
outlier — Edit as an outline button next to Record pledge, which
left two competing CTAs in the header.
Move `menu.with_item(text: t(".edit"), icon: "pencil", ...)` to
the top of the kebab list. Header now has a single primary CTA
(Record pledge, demoted to outline when status is :behind) + the
kebab. Matches every other Sure resource page; eliminates the
"button-too-big" framing entirely without resorting to ad-hoc
icon-size overrides (the `[&>svg]:w-4 [&>svg]:h-4` arbitrary
selector hack would have been a one-off, nobody else uses it).
Avatar pen toggle on the new-goal color picker stays reverted to
its original w-6 h-6 + border-2 form, per the user.

Sure: The personal finance app for everyone
Get involved: Discord • Website • Issues
Important
This repository is a community fork of the now-abandoned Maybe Finance project.
Learn more in their final release doc.
Backstory
The Maybe Finance (archived/abandoned repo) team spent most of 2021–2022 building a full-featured personal finance and wealth management app. It even included an “Ask an Advisor” feature that connected users with a real CFP/CFA — all included with your subscription.
The business end of things didn't work out, and so they stopped developing the app in mid-2023.
After spending nearly $1 million on development (employees, contractors, data providers, infra, etc.), the team open-sourced the app. Their goal was to let users self-host it for free — and eventually launch a hosted version for a small fee.
They actually did launch that hosted version … briefly.
That also didn’t work out — at least not as a sustainable B2C business — so now here we are: hosting a community-maintained fork to keep the codebase alive and see where this can go next.
Join us!
Hosting Sure
Sure is a fully working personal finance app that can be self hosted with Docker.

Performance Issues
With data-heavy apps, inevitably, there are performance issues. We've set up a public dashboard showing the problematic requests seen on the demo site, along with the stacktraces to help debug them.
