I wonder how the Americans feel that the weeks begin on Monday :) I wanted to figure out where the developer is from (presumably Europe because of the use of A4/A5), the terms of services is just a template, e.g. (not being judgemental, I found it amusing): > Contact Us: If you have any questions or concerns about our Privacy Policy, please contact us at [insert company email address].

yeah it was hacked quickly together. Eventually I'll make it possible to just save as pdf from the browser but for now, if you don't feel like leaving the email is an option, use some temp email service. I'm from Pl, yes

Regarding start of the week, will do that, I think browsers added support for checking that recently. Sorry folks, 99% of the world uses Monday ;)

Like a lot of calendars, this has a big focus on months yet the only monthly schedules I have are passive and operate in the background: salary in, bills out. When it comes to organising my life the cycle of week to week planning is by far the most important one. Where we are in that cycle at any given moment in time — what day of the week it is — is much more important than knowing the current month. Shopping for fo…

Google calendar in the 4-week view has always been my choice for this. A two-week view with some more detail per day would be even better, I think.

I'm experimenting with printable, 2-week calendars, which contains space for adding retrospective items throughout the week. I'd like to add weekly recurring items to it, would like to keep the overall appearance clean - making it easy to write on it.

I'd love your feedback and ideas to improve it.

American calendar weeks begin on Sunday in order to break up free time as a concept - and make work front & center. Oh how obnoxious & boring.

What are some good looking year-view wall calendars? The ‘at-a-glace’ stuff and related things you find at staples etc look too businessy for my taste. Anyone have pointers to better options? I like the clean design of the OP’s calendar pages.

I think it’s because the Jewish (and therefore the Christian) week traditionally starts on Sunday.

That being said, I like having the week start on Sunday (despite Germany starting weeks on Mondays) because I can just open the calendar app on Sunday night and see if I have any appointments early on Monday morning without switching weeks.
