Expense tracker app built with PHP and MySQL by Benny Mattis.

App built to specifications provided in a course at Montgomery College.

To allow users to record and report on expenses in customizable categories.

Use MAMP or XAMP to download PHP on your computer, put the php-exercises folder in the htdocs directory, and navigate to it in your web browser on localhost while the server is running. Be sure to change assets/php/_db_config.php according to your MySQL database credentials.

When the site is running, enter new credentials to create an account. Enter them again to log in to the new account.

Specifications.txt describes the function of each file in the application.

When logging in, click the checkbox to allow the app to "remember you" with a 24-hour cookie.

When viewing an expense report, click the button below the expense report to download it in CSV format.

Each account has its own custom categories. Create a new category by entering its name while viewing categories or while entering an expense.

While entering an expense, select a store that has already been used in the database, or enter a new store name to add the new store to the database.
