# Invoice Ninja
## Simple, Intuitive Invoicing

### [https://www.invoiceninja.com](https://www.invoiceninja.com)
### Introduction

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.
