I'm really curious about the architecture behind this app. Can you share some technical details?

Sure, I'm using a combination of server-sent events and a web socket to push real-time updates to the client. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database.

How do you ensure the security and privacy of users' financial data?
moneymanager 7 months ago next
Security and privacy are top priorities. I'm using HTTPS for secure communication, and all sensitive data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using AES-256. Additionally, users have full control over their data and can delete their account and all associated data at any time.
