## What is ExpenseTrackerEx?

A standalone iOS app that runs entirely on-device. Data is stored in a local SQLite database within the app's Application Support directory. Seed-data driven: eight default categories are created on the first DB migration.

Core Features:

    Record, edit, and delete dated expense entries
    Categorize expenses (default and user-created); manage user categories
    "This Month" summary with daily-grouped expense lists
    Statistics: category donut/pie chart, percentage breakdown, daily trend bar chart — filterable by month or "All Time"
    Display currency selection (presentation only)
    Export and import SQLite backups

Target Users: Individuals wanting a fast, private, offline expense tracker. Requires only standard iOS interaction knowledge.

Environment: iOS 17.0+, iPhone, portrait orientation. Local storage only — no login, no cloud sync.

Technical Constraints:

    SwiftUI state management via @Observable / @Environment
    SQLite through GRDB, with schema versioning via migrations
    All amounts stored as integer cents (avoids floating-point errors)
    Display currency is a presentation concern — persisted in UserDefaults, not the database

One-line takeaway: A private, offline-first iOS expense tracker with categories, monthly stats, and backup support, built on SwiftUI + GRDB with integer-cent amounts
