Description

Support tracking transactions in multiple currencies with automatic FX conversion for reports.

Why later: v0.1 assumes a single currency (whatever the user's banks use). Most personal users don't need this.

Rough scope:

  • Add currency column to transactions + ledgers
  • FX rate provider (e.g. exchangerate.host)
  • Reports normalize to a base currency

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the transaction, ledger, and reporting entry points, then clarify the currency model and FX provider requirements before implementation. Done means transactions and ledgers retain currencies, rates support conversion, and reports normalize values to a base currency.
