03 / A PROJECT WITH A PURPOSEEveryday problem.
Everyday problem.
Thoughtful little solution.
LenDen brings a familiar habit into a simpler space: keeping an honest record of money lent and money returned.
It’s an open-source project built by Shubham Kumar Dubey, pairing an Expo mobile app with an Express API, PostgreSQL, and Redis. This Next.js site is a little introduction to it all.

Good questions.
What exactly does LenDen do?+
LenDen helps you keep a personal record of borrowers, money you have lent, repayments, and outstanding principal. It is a ledger; it does not transfer money or issue loans.
Can I try it here?+
Yes. The interactive ledger at the top uses sample data. Select a borrower and record a sample repayment to watch the balances update. It resets when you reload and does not save or send any data. To run the full app, follow the setup guide on GitHub.
Does it calculate interest?+
The current balance is the amount given minus repayments. A monthly percentage can be stored on borrower profiles, but automatic interest calculation is not implemented yet.
Can I explore or contribute to the code?+
Absolutely. LenDen is available under the MIT license. Explore the mobile app and backend, follow the setup instructions, or open an issue on GitHub.
Good records.
Better peace of mind.
