If you'd like to use our code to sell your own invoicing app we offer a white-label affiliate program. We ask for 20% of revenue with a $100 sign up fee. Get in touch for more details.
Most online invoicing sites are expensive. They shouldn't be. The aim of this project is to provide a free, open-source alternative. Additionally, the hope is the codebase will serve as a sample site for Laravel as well as other JavaScript technologies.
To setup the site you can either use this zip file (easier to setup) or checkout the code from GitHub following the instructions below (easier to stay up to date). There's also a more detailed setup guide available here.
For a WAMP/MAMP/LAMP setup you can one-click install using Softaculous's AMPPS. To deploy the app with Docker you can use this project.
To connect follow @invoiceninja or join the Facebook Group. For discussion of the code please use the Google Group.
If you'd like to translate the site please use caouecs/Laravel4-long for the starter files.

- The application requires PHP >= 5.4.0
- If you make any changes to the JavaScript files you need to run grunt to create the built files. See Gruntfile.js for more details.
- The lookup tables are cached in memory (ie, Currencies, Timezones, Languages, etc). If you add a record to the database you need to clear the cache by uncommenting Cache::flush() in app/routes.php.
- If you run into any composer errors try running composer dump-autoload.
