If you want an open source self hosted budgeting solution, firefly is the most commonly recommended (https://www.firefly-iii.org/). If you are looking for something supported/less DIY and with features beyond budgeting, checkout Homechart (https://about.homechart.app).

The author of firefly claims to do double entry but it's just not true. I quickly gave up when I realized that I could not input a refund on my credit card account. It doesn't allow positive transactions. The only suggested workaround by the author himself was to edit the original transaction. Firefly is probably useful for many people but to me it was too opinionated and not natural to use. I moved to Gnucash.

That's still double entry actually, because it refers to the DB structure ;)
