    My pet project is a web app that uses a similar view of the year https://calii.tiimo.app . I find the continuation of the months easier to comprehend time passing in a year.

    I've been working on a simple calendar app[1]. It helps me plan annual leave/ school holidays and visualise the time between upcoming deadlines. I started it just because I wanted …

    I've been working on a simple calendar app too that is based on this layout. I find the layout cleaner and simpler to comprehend time passing over a year. [1] https://calii.tiimo.a…

    That's great. I hadn't noticed it's has been added to PowerToys. I can now finally retire my 7 year old script. Hopefully one day it will be promoted to be included in Windows by d…

    I've used GroupAdd[1] and GroupActivate to alternate between windows of the same app but it doesn't ignore minimised windows. Maybe you can ignore minimised when adding to the Grou…
