## FAQs
**WTF is 'Mintable'?!**
> **min·ta·ble**: _noun._
> 1. An open-source tool to automate your personal finances – for free, with no ads, and no data collection. Derived from *mint* (the [wildly popular personal finance app from Intuit](https://www.mint.com/)) + *table* (a spreadsheet).
**Do I have to use Plaid?**
* Nope. You can [import transactions from a CSV bank statement](./docs/README.md#manually--on-your-local-machine--via-csv-bank-statements) exclusively on your local machine. We also have [templates](./docs/templates) to get you started.
**Do I have to use Google Sheets?**
* Nope. You can [export your account balances & transactions to a CSV file](./docs/README.md#on-your-local-machine--via-csv-files) exclusively on your local machine.
**Do I have to manually run this every time I want new transactions in my spreadsheet?**
* Nope. You can automate it for free using [BitBar](./docs/README.md#automatically-in-your-macs-menu-bar--via-bitbar), [`cron`](./docs/README.md#automatically-in-your-local-machines-terminal--via-cron), or [GitHub Actions](./docs/README.md#automatically-in-the-cloud--via-github-actions).
**How do I use it with banks outside the US?**
* Fork & edit the [country codes here](https://github.com/kevinschaich/mintable/blob/377257a6040ed9b6dd93d88435e53c48108b5806/src/integrations/plaid/plaidIntegration.ts#L126). Default support is for US banks.
**How do I use it with Windows?**
* Windows is not natively supported but you can try [this](https://github.com/kevinschaich/mintable/issues/125#issuecomment-1253961155).
