In simple English
This tool turns your plain text notes into a visual daily schedule. You write tasks with times inside your regular notes, and they show up on a clean timeline sidebar. It also pulls in events from Google Calendar, Outlook, and iCloud. You can track how long tasks take with simple start and stop buttons. It is free to use and runs entirely inside your existing note-taking app.
What it is
An Obsidian (a desktop and mobile app for keeping notes in plain text files) community plugin that adds an editable timeline, multi-day planner views, and basic time tracking. It reads task times from daily notes or other Markdown files and syncs with external calendar feeds.
What it is good for
Solo builders who use Obsidian for daily planning and want a visual schedule without switching to a separate calendar app.
- Displays tasks and external calendar events side by side in your notes.
- Tracks time spent on specific tasks with a simple right-click menu.
- Free and open-source with an MIT licence.
- Requires the Obsidian app to be installed and running.
- Time-tracking features are currently experimental and subject to change.
- Dependent on third-party plugin integrations for advanced task filtering.
