💻
Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?
Like how YNAB would display a visual indicator for how far along you are until meeting your target, I would love Actual Budget to implement a similar feature.
Describe your ideal solution to this problem
I understand that templates are in the works right now so this should be tackled afterwards. It should be displayed right under each category.

I hae a userscript proof-of-concept which does this. It seemingly works, but if this is in alignment with the project design, I can work on refactoring into typescript for a possible merge to main.
I don't use the report budget myself so I only have a month of test data.

Sorry to necro this old ticket, but was this feature actually implemented and completed, as per the issue's current status? I can't see any way to enable this in the demo.actualbudget.org instance.

This feature request is still open. Progress bars have not been implemented
@ebkalderon commented on GitHub (Feb 10, 2025):
Thanks for the clarification! Apologies again for necro-ing the thread. I wish I was more confident in my JS/TS skills, or I would contribute directly myself.

I've completed a prototype to show progress bars for categories and templates/goals. I will try to open a PR for this.
@tostasmistas commented on GitHub (Feb 13, 2025):
@tbuist - Similar to what YNAB has, do you think it's possible to have the progress bars be optional? I for instance, sometimes liked to have them turned off to be easier to glance at what categories I have and how they are organized.
@tbuist commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2025):
Good idea, I've added a configuration option to the Settings->Theme section.

Hey guys - I'm new to this so excuse me if I'm missing any important points while contributiing. I've vibe coded a simple solution but not for targets yet as they are not available in the UI:
Maybe this could be a simple solution to start this whole progress bar topic? I decided to go with a very simple approach: The bar simple compares spent to budgeted. There are the following options:
As soon as targets are available in the UI, I think the feature could be adjusted to represent the more complex logic similar to YNAB.
Coming from YNAB, the visual bar is one of the features I miss the most, that's why I decided to give it a try with Claude Code ;)

I went one step further and combined it with a simple UI for templates:
