What comes into your mind when someone says "calendar"? š¤

@sdetweil how about animated backgrounds, like live wallpapers for mobile? Can we have them? Also, say, I want to change the fonts of the days and/or the colors, is that easy?
-
@aderoks animated, sure I guess soā¦ I donāt know of a module that does that now, if u think content is crazy, just wait til the background is animatedā¦
also cpu power is always an issueā¦
colors an fonts , sure , css can change any/all of thatā¦ nothing āsimpleā, but doableā¦

on how to do this without edit, save, try, oops notā¦ loop

As Iāve said many times before a calendar is a list of dates in a readable format. An agenda is a calendar with activities.
Sadly, corporations have made the term extremely fluid, and as a result, we just call it all a calendar now.
But, yes, CalExt3 is the way to get a full size calendar, and MMM-Multimonth is a way to get a mini calendar with agenda marks, and MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda is how to get a list.
However you want is the beauty of MagicMirror.

@sdetweil let me add on some more. š What if you want to see the calendar for a different month or a different year altogether?
-
@BKeyport exactly my opinion. I really donāt get why people say ālet me check my calendarā when they can say ālet me see my availability or scheduleā. The calendar is just the list of dates, arranged in a weekly and monthly grid, nothing more, nothing less.
-
@aderoks MagicMirror does not load modules on the fly, only at startup.
currently no module can change its view like that.(no swipe right for another month or year like on mobile)
| I see Ext3 can do āglanceā, but only thru the pre-configured data output by the default calendar moduleā¦
you could use mmm-pages to enable viewing a second predefined view, but two fixed definitions would have to be setup for startup time. -
@aderoks because the word ācalendarā has become the colloquial term for all the formal scheduling stuff.
and it now is separated from its physical presentation.
I can view it in many ways. but all come down to a moving window of time over the larger collection of time ordered entries.
hour, day, week, month, are all some time box boundary to view the data thru.
managed by the ācalendarā application you are using -
@aderoks
CalExt3 has also āglancingā feature, if you have a proper input method to trigger valid notifications(yes, even with swiping if you have touchscreen and use MMM-Touch module together)Anyway, MM is DIY hobby project, not perfect. If you want some feature, just build by yourself and share it with others. Thatās all.

@aderoks one of my friends, a very funny fellow loves BBQ and joking. so when one says him ālet me check my calendarā he gets back with āsure, but please donāt put me on the gridā ;)
