Money FlowPreview
HousingFoodTransportSavings

A Sankey flow diagram showing how money moves from income sources through a central pool to expenses, savings, and net savings. The width of each flow is proportional to the amount.

What It Shows

A three-column flow:

  • Left column -- income sources (Salary, Freelance, etc.)
  • Centre node -- "Available" pool (total income)
  • Right column -- expense categories (sorted by amount), savings categories, and optionally "Net Saved"

The "Net Saved" node only appears when total income exceeds total expenses plus savings.

Key Features

  • Three-column layout -- Income to Available to Outflows
  • Colour-coded nodes -- each category uses its own colour
  • Flow colouring -- links inherit the source node's colour at reduced opacity
  • Net Saved -- appears in sky blue only when you're saving money
  • Adjacency emphasis -- hovering a node highlights all connected flows

Tooltip

On a flow: shows the source, destination, and amount (e.g. Salary to Available, $8,500.00).

On a node: shows the node name and total amount flowing through it.

Interactivity

  • Hover on node -- highlights the node and all directly connected flows
  • Hover on flow -- highlights the specific flow path

Empty State

Displays "No flow data" when there are no income or expense entries for the current month.
