**Ghostfolio** is an open source wealth management software built with web technology. The application empowers busy people to keep track of their wealth like stocks, ETFs or cryptocurrencies and make solid, data-driven investment decisions.
Our official **[Ghostfolio Premium](https://ghostfol.io/pricing)** cloud offering is the easiest way to get started. Due to the time it saves, this will be the best option for most people. The revenue is used for covering the hosting costs.
The backend is based on [NestJS](https://nestjs.com) using [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org) as a database together with [Prisma](https://www.prisma.io) and [Redis](https://redis.io) for caching.
The frontend is built with [Angular](https://angular.io) and uses [Angular Material](https://material.angular.io) with utility classes from [Bootstrap](https://getbootstrap.com).
1. Run `docker compose up -d` to start [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org) and [Redis](https://redis.io)
1. Run `cd -` to go back to the project root directory
1. Run `yarn setup:database` to initialize the database schema and populate your database with (example) data
1. Start server and client (see [_Development_](#Development))
