The Mia! Django Accounting Application
Description
mia-accounting is a Django accounting application. It was rewritten from my own private accounting application in Perl/mod_perl in 2007. The revision aims to be mobile-friendly with Bootstrap, with a modern back-end framework and front-end technology like jQuery. The first revision was in Perl/Mojolicious in 2019. This is the second revision in Python/Django in 2020.
The Mia! Django accounting application comes with two parts:
- The accounting application contains the main accounting application.
- The mia_core application contains core shared libraries that are used by the accounting application and my other applications.
You may try it in live demonstration at:
- URL: https://accounting.imacat.idv.tw/accounting
- Username: admin
- Password: 12345
