In this tutorial, we walk through building a simple yet powerful personal finance tracker using Dash, Plotly, and Python. The goal is to help you understand how to create a dynamic and interactive web app from scratch, while keeping things clean, intuitive, and functional. p.s. Feel free to improve upon it and use it. You'll learn how to: - Set up a Dash app with Bootstrap styling - Capture user input and handle state - Visualize data with pie and bar charts using Plotly Express - Store and retrieve transactions using a local JSON file - Update the UI in real-time using Dash callbacks This is more than just a coding lesson — it's a chance to slow down, focus, and build something meaningful. Whether you're organizing your own finances or exploring data visualization with Dash, I hope this video helps you think more clearly and create more intentionally. 🛠 Code: You can find the full source code on GitHub: 👉 https://github.com/BekBrace/finance-tracker-python/tree/main 🧘‍♀️ Chapters: 0:00 – Introduction 0:44 – What is Dash ? 2:02 – Project Demo 3:48 – Setting up the project 4:12 – Dependencies / requirements.txt 5:33 – Virtual environment / PIPENV 6:16 – Coding the app ... 26:31 – Callback decorator @app.callback() 43:50 – Testing and debugging 46:20 – Take care and Bye-Bye
