Hi HN

I built a small open-source CLI tool that lets you generate professional invoices directly from the terminal.

Write invoices in YAML/JSON Export to clean PDF instantly No SaaS lock-in, no vendor dependency Great for freelancers & developers

The motivation came from constantly struggling with overcomplicated invoicing software while working on side projects. I wanted something minimal, scriptable, and developer-friendly.

I’d love your feedback - Does this solve a real pain point for freelancers/developers? - What features would you expect in a minimal invoicing CLI? - Any ideas for integrations (e.g. Stripe, Notion, etc.)?

Thanks for checking it out!
