I haven't been active on the beancount mailing list lately, but have been working to meld Fava and Beancount together in a vscode environment using Eclipse Theia, with the long-term goal of making Beancount and plaintext accounting feel more like a packaged, crossplatform app that doesn't require upfront programming experience to at least do manual entries.
This drive sorta came after using Beancount+Fava for a couple years and realizing Im the only one who could understand the accounting system and it'd suck if I needed to share it to family or start an organization with it.
Happy to hear if there's interest in such a thing. I'm the same guy that collaborated on bringing extensions to Fava a few years ago.
What are the advantages over beancount? I often consider switching myself because beancount (and PTA generally) looks cool, but I don't really have an actual reason to leave GnuCash.
