This reminds me that not much of this year is remaining :(
Dilettante_•6mo ago
Don't worry, there's a fresh one coming right after :)
Tallain•6mo ago
At this rate, we'll be done in no time!
metalrain•6mo ago
Neat, but how do you close the message blocking the calendar?
throwaboneaway•6mo ago
Print it :)
gherkinnn•6mo ago
Print it
_Algernon_•6mo ago
It would be nice to be able to preview the result before printing it, so the question still stands.
jen729w•6mo ago
Cmd-P brings up a preview immediately? Laid out on A4, like it'll print, unlike your arbitrarily-sized browser window.
rpdillon•6mo ago
The layout of the page is going to be a function of the paper size you put it on and the orientation of that paper. Use the print preview.
seanhunter•6mo ago
I used dev tools to nuke it, but it’s really annoying
butz•6mo ago
I think "printing" in 2025 usually means "Save to PDF" :)
plaguna•6mo ago
Feature request: make it so you can pick the starting month. For example, school year is around the corner in September and that will be nice to have.
quibus•6mo ago

santiagobasulto•6mo ago
I feel like 3000 will be my best year
thefluffytoucan•6mo ago
Useful, thanks!

Now if someone made one with the ability to drag colored blocks of days around..

callahad•6mo ago
Cassidy Williams recently published an open source calendar that might scratch that itch: https://pocketcal.com

Source at https://github.com/cassidoo/pocketcal

abetusk•6mo ago
No drag ability but you can put different color data into a data JSON file that gets used when rendering for Neatocal [0] (fork/extension of Neatnik's calendar).

Example: https://abetusk.github.io/neatocal/?data=example/sched.json

Nice. I did something in 2020 in a spreadsheet to calculate some sort of a Big Picture Timeline of the family with a our own definition of Success and Failures. For me, I found that it is easier to see Weekends in a Straight line rather than the starting date (I have school going kids).

I did it pretty manually because this is something I do once every year around the year-end.

Here is the Google Sheet Template. Change/Add/Edit the "YYYY" sheet to the year you want and fix the dates (should not take you more than 5-min). I have included the year a family member is born in the "Data" sheet to calculate the key events in life - Kids Graduation, and whatever else you want to in sync with you, your partner’s age, and any event you want to track.

The page's html and css are reasonably small, 3.3kB and 1.5kB. There are three fonts, totalling about 51kB. So altogether about 56kB.

But then somewhat spoiling the page's nice light weight is a 576kB favicon.

abetusk•6mo ago
I made an updated version, which I called "neatocal", that allows for different options (and doesn't have the initial popup), including allowing for year changes, differing month counts, different start months, etc.

See the "Parameters" list:

https://github.com/abetusk/neatocal?tab=readme-ov-file#param...

Neatnik is a very nice project.

mrweasel•6mo ago
There's a Danish website: https://ugenr.dk/ which displays the current week number, it also have a printable calendar, but it seems a lille more useful as it already have holidays marked, week numbers and the layout is generally better.
jp1016•6mo ago
I’ve been thinking about the same challenge. Most calendars feel too rigid and don’t really work well when your goals or routines shift over time. I started building something called BeaverGrow, a simple dashboard with separate widgets for goals, habits, notes, and timelines. The idea is to let you piece things together the way you want, kind of like Lego blocks.

It’s still pretty minimal, but if you’re curious, you can check it out at https://beavergrow.com

Cool.
