500 Stars
++ Ghostfolio, the web-based personal + finance management software, is celebrating 500 stars on + GitHub. This + is a major milestone for this open source project and a good time + for another + recap. +
+Growing Community
++ The Ghostfolio community is growing on various platforms and has + recently passed 100 members on + Slack + as well as 100 followers on + Twitter. If you have + not joined yet, this is a good time to make sure you do not miss out + on any future updates. +
+Message Queue: Asynchronous Processing
++ Overall + stability and robustness + has increased significantly since the introduction of a + message queue. The + workers of this robust queue system process jobs, namely gathering + historical market data, asynchronously in the background to not + bother the main service. +
+Ready for Web 3.0
++ The + recent integration of Internet Identity, a blockchain authentication system, makes Ghostfolio ready for + Web3. This third iteration of the World Wide Web is the vision of a + new and better Internet based on decentralized blockchains to give + power back to the users. Internet Identity created by the + Dfinity Foundation enables you to + sign in securely and anonymously to Ghostfolio without an email + address, username, or a password. All you need is your device with + built-in biometric authentication. +
+Break-even Point
++ Despite the complicated + economic situation at this time, + the goal set at the beginning of the year to build a sustainable + business and reach break-even with the SaaS offering (Ghostfolio Premium) has been achieved. We will continue to leverage the revenue to + further improve the fully managed cloud offering for our paying + customers. A new goal we have set for ourselves is to become + profitable. +
+Outlook
++ Besides all the positive accomplishments during the last months, + there is still a lot of room for improvement. It would be great to + onboard more contributors who are actively involved in software + engineering to realize the full potential of open source software. + If you are a web developer and interested in personal finance, + please get in touch by email via + hi@ghostfol.io or on Twitter + @ghostfolio_. We are + happy to discuss ideas. +
++ We would like to say thank you for all your feedback and support + since the beginning of this project. +
+
+ Off to the next 500 stars!
