What does it do?

docker-finance (dfi) is a translucent container system that gives you the power of a privacy-focused, highly uniform system of financial management.

Cryptocurrencies & blockchain metadata are unified with legacy finance to create a world of best-practice accounting in a highly flexible, time-tested environment.

Tax preparation; report generation; metadata management & analysis, and an entire suite of financial tools are easily at your disposal - entirely managed through dfi.
