GnuCash is a Free Software double-entry book-keeping personal finance system, written primarily in C, with a small fraction in Scheme.^[1] It was initially aimed at developing capabilities similar to Intuit's Quicken application, but also has features for small business accounting. Recent development has been focused on adapting to modern desktop support-library requirements.

GnuCash is part of the GNOME desktop environment, and runs on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac OS X, and other Unix-like platforms. A Microsoft Windows port is under development.

On July 9, 2006, the GnuCash Development Team released GnuCash 2.0.0. A notable change is the highly anticipated conversion to GTK2.
