Cleverbrush reference hardening for xpenser
xpenser hardened its Cleverbrush Framework reference implementation so the app remains a stronger example project and product.
The project tightened its role as a Cleverbrush Framework reference app while preserving the xpenser product experience.
This release came from PR #26 and is now part of the xpenser release archive. It gives people evaluating an open-source expense tracker a clearer view of how the product has improved over time.
What changed
- Improved reference-app behavior and documentation touchpoints.
- Reduced brittle assumptions around framework usage.
- Kept the finance app usable while serving as a framework example.
Why it matters
xpenser is both a real expense tracker and a reference implementation. Hardening that boundary makes the codebase more useful for maintainers and evaluators.
Where it fits
This supports long-term maintainability for the open-source project.
