What florykhan/FutureSpend is—in plain language

Hackathon FastAPI + Next.js prototype forecasting spending from calendar events with dashboard, savings challenges, mock banking, and optional Gemini coach.

Mental model: This repository provides a directly runnable command or package. You give the command an input, it performs the documented workflow, and it returns files, terminal output, a local interface, or a remote result.
InterfacesNone documented
Primary languagePython, TypeScript
Typical useStudy/extend a calendar-driven finance demo rather than use it as production financial infrastructure.

Your first 15 minutes

  1. Complete the linked Installation Guide and its verification step.
  2. Create a disposable test folder or use non-sensitive sample data.
  3. Run the small example below and observe what files, ports, or prompts appear.
  4. Read the result before approving writes, network calls, account access, or costs.
  5. Only then repeat the workflow with a real project.

How to use the main workflows

1

Choose the smallest relevant function

Start with one capability card instead of asking the repository to do everything at once. This makes permissions, inputs, and output easier to understand.

2

Prepare a disposable input

Use a sample URL, copied repository, test document, or sandbox account. Keep production credentials and irreplaceable files out of the first run.

3

Run, observe, and stop

Watch Terminal output or the host application's activity view. If the behavior differs from the README, stop with Control + C or cancel inside the host before retrying.

4

Inspect the result

Check generated files, diffs, API responses, logs, or previews. Never assume “command finished” means the result is correct.

5

Save a repeatable recipe

Record the working command and non-secret configuration in your project's README. Store secrets in the documented environment file or password manager.

Copy-paste recipes from upstream documentation

These examples are selected from the repository's first-party documentation. Replace obvious placeholders, keep quotation marks intact, and run them only in the context indicated by the surrounding explanation.

3️⃣ Frontend
cd frontend
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local and set: NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000/
npm install
npm run dev

Configuration, accounts, and files

Configuration files

None documented

A configuration file changes behavior without changing source code. Make one change at a time and keep a backup before editing JSON, TOML, YAML, or environment files.

Important directories

backend/, frontend/

Paths identify where the relevant implementation or generated files live. Paths beginning with ~ are inside your home folder.

Credentials

optional Gemini key

Prefer temporary, least-privileged credentials. Never commit .env, tokens, cookies, private keys, or session exports.

External services

None documented

Check pricing, data retention, rate limits, and account permissions before enabling optional integrations.

Safe operating habits

  • Use test data first and keep a current backup or Git commit.
  • Read commands before pasting. A README is useful evidence, not a substitute for judgment.
  • Review agent-generated file changes with git diff before committing.
  • Keep local services bound to 127.0.0.1 unless you intentionally secure and expose them.
  • Do not give plugins or MCP servers broader filesystem, browser, GitHub, or cloud access than their current task requires.
  • Confirm API costs and model names before running large batches.
  • Stop and investigate repeated authentication failures instead of pasting a token into multiple places.

Reference and source trail

The manual reflects first-party files checked on August 18, 2026. It explains the indexed repository rather than promising that every optional third-party integration is available or safe.
