https://beancount.github.io/

is the project home page. You can find the documentation here:

https://beancount.github.io/docs/

I haven't submitted beancount-mode to any Emacs package repository yet,
there is still some work I would like to do before doing it. You can
find it here:

https://github.com/beancount/beancount-mode

with some minimal documentation.

Beancount is distributed as a Python package, thus it should be easily
installable on any system providing Python 3.6 or later.
