This PR simplifies the IndexedDB synchronization mechanism by removing
individual sync controllers and services, and instead using Inertia.js
shared props to provide data globally across the application.
## Benefits
1. **Simplified Architecture**: Removed complex sync logic for
static/semi-static data (accounts, categories, banks, labels, automation
rules)
2. **Better Performance**: Data is now shared via Inertia props,
eliminating unnecessary API calls and IndexedDB operations
3. **Reduced Complexity**: Significantly reduced codebase size (~2000
lines removed)
4. **Better UX**: Data is immediately available on page load without
waiting for sync operations
5. **Maintainability**: Fewer moving parts means easier to maintain and
debug
## Migration Notes
- Transaction syncing still uses IndexedDB for offline support
- All other data (accounts, categories, banks, labels, automation rules)
is now fetched via Inertia shared props
- Components automatically receive updated data on navigation without
manual sync operations

Introduces a fully-functional demo account that lets prospective users
explore Whisper Money without creating an account. Users can click
"Check Demo" on the welcome page to instantly access a pre-populated
account with realistic financial data spanning 12 months.
## What's New
**Try Before You Sign Up**
- New "Check Demo" button on the welcome page for instant access
- Pre-configured demo account with real-world financial scenarios
- 12 months of sample transactions across multiple account types
(checking, savings, credit cards, investments)
- Pre-built automation rules, labels, and categories to showcase the
full app experience
**Demo Account Limitations**
- Demo accounts are read-only for sensitive operations (can't change
password, email, or payment settings)
- Clear messaging throughout the UI when demo restrictions apply
- Settings pages show helpful notices about demo limitations
- Automatic daily reset to maintain fresh demo experience
**Developer Experience**
- `php artisan demo:reset` command for manual resets
- Configurable via environment variables (DEMO_EMAIL, DEMO_PASSWORD,
DEMO_ENCRYPTION_KEY)
- Comprehensive test coverage for demo restrictions and data generation
## User Impact
This feature removes the friction of signing up before understanding the
product's value. Users can:
- Explore all features with realistic data
- Test automation rules and see them in action
- View charts and insights based on a year of financial activity
- Experience the full privacy-first encryption workflow
- Understand the product before committing to create an account
Perfect for demos, screenshots, documentation, and helping users make
informed decisions about whether Whisper Money fits their needs.
## Summary
Add a labeling system for transactions that differs from categories in
that labels are ephemeral and created on-the-fly when assigned (no
pre-creation required). A transaction can have multiple labels
(many-to-many relationship), and labels can be used for filtering in the
transaction table and as actions in automation rules.
