I might consider adding a backend server at some point, but I'd still want to keep the tool as simple and privacy-friendly as possible.

Right now everything works fully offline, and that's part of the appeal.

If I do add a backend, it would only be for optional things like syncing or sharing — and it would stay opt-in so the core experience remains local-only.

Still exploring the balance there, but thanks for the idea!


Thanks! Yes, everything is stored locally in the browser — no backend at all.

And that’s a great idea. I’ve been thinking about adding an export/import option, and encoding the data into the URL hash actually fits the “offline + privacy-first” vibe really well.

I’ll explore it — would be super useful for sharing or backup without requiring any server.

Thanks for the suggestion!


A small suggestion that immediately came to my mind, why not try making it a JSON serialized data and base64 encode it just like JWT. So that it can be shared and loaded effectively.

Just thinking out loud here ;)


This is what I would do too but one problem I think there is a max HTTP URL length

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I will do it later

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Yep, it’s responsive — though the layout gets a bit tight on very small screens, so I’ll tweak that later.

About the “list above or below” part — what kind of list were you thinking of? Like a separate to-do list outside the calendar, or just more space for notes?

Curious to hear what you meant!


Thanks for the reply, I thought so because I use it in paper form. A to-do list for the selected month, along with notes, is helpful.

So maybe you need to improve the onboarding experience. The reviewer is likely trying to use your app as a normal user would


I don’t like AI-generated content, but sadly, it feels like we’re surrounded by it everywhere.


You created an AI-generated coloring book. Is it a way to farm karma?
