About

expensio-meter is a simple web app built for trying to figure out if something is expensive or not when travelling, according to values you know about

How to Use

For a better idea, check out the live demo. The idea is that you select your home country, add increasing values of things that you find cheap, moderately cheap and so forth.

Then, add a country to compare and you can get a better idea of how values scale. You can then save that value to localStorage for later use.

Setup

Most of the dev environment was initially bootstrapped using bun, but later on it was migrated to pnpm. Using pnpm is advised, especially if you add any dependencies, but not really essential.

Warning

Keep in mind that .pnpm-lock.yaml has to match the package.json, so CI/CD runs of bun installed builds will likely fail.

First, run

pnpm install
# alternatively 
# bun install

Then,

pnpm dev
# alternatively 
# bun dev
