Quotes
Way less painful than QuickBooks if you're also a programmer or adjacent. --dmoy
My favorite part of the (extensive) Haskell API is
Hledger.Cli.Script. It re-exports all the most commonly used functions and data types, meaning you're just one import away from everything you need to get started.--wbadart

Quotes
A key advantage of hledger, and why I migrated from ledger, is that hledger internally orders transactions chronologically, whereas ledger inexplicably orders them in the order they appear in the file, irrespective of the date attached to them.--chromatin
hledger can validate date order, that seems to eliminate copy-paste-fail-to-update-date for me. --yencabulator
The reason I have hledger installed is for check ordereddates. --kvass
