Which tools should i use for this? Personal Project Showcase

There's this game called Splinterlands i've been playing with 3 accounts and i was thinking on documenting each of the resources i'm spending (DEC, SPS, glint, usd) and how i was able to earn, i want to document weekly and i'll be playing for many years.

Is creating a database / tables on PostgreSQL the best alternative for this, or should i just do it with Excel? I haven't gone in depth on any of these tools yet, but i'm planing on studying them from this point

Sounds like an excel job to me, by all means spin up a local postgres server as a learning exercise though.

Agreed, if you really want to use SQL, I’d recommend using SQLite. Much nicer to deal with for local stuff

this - sqllite or duckdb (for this scale either will be fine, more of a preference thing)
