Quick start
Wingspan works in Chrome and Edge on Monarch’s web app. Firefox and Safari builds are experimental, and the README explains how to load each.
Install
Section titled “Install”Store listings for the Chrome Web Store and Edge Add-ons are on the way. Until then, build it from source:
git clone https://github.com/axerieSoftware/wingspan.gitcd wingspannpm installnpm run build:edge # or npm run build:chrome for Chrome- Open
edge://extensions(orchrome://extensions). - Turn on Developer mode.
- Click Load unpacked and choose
.output/edge-mv3(or.output/chrome-mv3).
Turn on Recurring 2.0
Section titled “Turn on Recurring 2.0”Wingspan adds to Monarch’s newer Recurring page. In Monarch, go to Settings → Early Access and turn on Recurring 2.0.
Add a card payment or a bill
Section titled “Add a card payment or a bill”- Open Recurring while signed in to Monarch.
- Choose Add recurring → Add manually.
- Set Type to Card payment or Bill. Wingspan shows its own fields in place of Monarch’s.
- Save. It shows up with Monarch’s recurring items, sorted by date.
Pick what counts as checking
Section titled “Pick what counts as checking”On Cash Flow, open Edit cash and cards and choose your checking accounts, which cards count, and how much to keep in checking. Recurring’s month summary links there too.
If something looks off
Section titled “If something looks off”Open DevTools → Network and filter by client=wingspan to see every request Wingspan sends to Monarch, and whether Monarch rejected any. If it did, open an issue.
