[hledger-web](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-web)
provides a web-based user interface for viewing and modifying your ledger.
It includes an account register view that is more useful than the command-line register, and basic data entry and editing.

The web app detects changes in journal files (but not CSV or rules
files, currently), showing the new data on the next request. If such
a change makes the file unparseable, hledger-web will show an error
until the file has been fixed.
**Note:** unlike any other hledger command, `web` can alter existing journal
data, via the edit form. A numbered backup of the file is saved on
each edit, normally (ie if file permissions allow, disk is not full, etc.)
Also, there is no built-in access control. So unless you run it behind an
authenticating proxy, any visitor to your server will be able to see and
overwrite the journal file (and included files.)
Note there is no built-in access control, so unless you run it behind

server will be able to see and add entries to the journal.
hledger-web disallows edits which would leave the journal file not in
valid [journal format](#journal). If the file becomes unparseable
by other means, hledger-web will show an error until the file has been
fixed.
