I've been using it for several years and wanted to get it into an app. I've been getting a lot of suggestions and requests from early adopters. I will definitely take yours into consideration. There's a lot of room for improvements.

The parser and processor have a comprehensive test suite.

npm i pbudget -g

I talk about the DSL design and its capabilities in detail here:
