Automated Calendar

Oct 30, 2016

I would like to share a wall calendar with you, so you can plan your events and mark your activity. I developed an automated calendar that can be printed and placed on a wall, a whiteboard, or a fridge. Your favorite pictures, holidays, and events can be added to the calendar. The calendar can be delivered as a PDF attachment to your email every month.

You may download the calendar for November 2016 as a PDF document with one click:

This monthly calendar is very flexible. It supports dozens of features such as:
* 10 languages
* Moon phases
* Preview of previous & next months
* Highlighting weekends, holidays and events
* Add your picture

The calendar is designed to fit the standard 8″ x 11.5″ paper but it can be zoomed in or out before printing. When printed with 33% scale the calendar makes a nice table calendar.

To get a copy of the calendar for December 2016, comment on this post with your valid email. Your email will not be shown or shared; I care about privacy.

I am glad to open source this automated calendar with the most permissive MIT license. I used Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) to develop the calendar. Technically, the calendar is the SSRS report. Check my SSRS-Calendar project on GitHub.

I hope you will find this calendar useful, as it helps to never miss events, reminds to buy gifts in advance, and allows remember your activities and happy moments.

Let me know what you think.

Hi Roman,

I like the format of your calendar. Nice work!

I wish there was an App to PDF or App to print option. This way data -such as birth days- could be transferred from one year onto the next one. And of course the App would have access to calendar on phone importing other data…

  Thank you, Miklos, for the idea. Regular events such as birthdays and holidays do carry over to the next year. The scheduling app is very flexible — it supports many types of repeatable events. The App for adding personal events is not available yet, so saving the birthdays is currently only halfway automated but I am working on it. Thanks again for your feedback!

    On a second thought I realized this morning that actually I may not want to see the records of my work calendar all the time on my home calendar. Therefore, should you implement it at some point in the future then I would recommend a slide bar or some other solution that would make work related data appear/disappear instantly. 🙂
    
    By the way Roman, another suggestion, you could arrange comment/response update notification on your WordPress site (so that when you respond the poster gets notified).
    
    I received the calendar. Thank you very much.
