## ⚙️ How to Configure

When you run ynab-buddy for the first time, a configuration file will be created in your home directory. This file helps ynab-buddy understand the structure of your bank's files and how to process them.

To make ynab-buddy work seamlessly with your bank, open the config file and follow the instructions provided in the comments.

*Note that YNAB does not filter out duplicates with this method, so use the flag colour to distinguish newly imported transactions.
