cal.com VS excalidraw

Cal.com is an open-source event-juggling scheduler for everyone, and is free for individuals.

Turborepo is a tool that makes it easy to manage monorepos with pnpm and typescript. On large open source porject like cal.com they use it for fast building or running developing tasks like testing or linting. Turborepo depend havily on caching so it would reduce signficantly the time to build or run the tasks as well as CI/CD pipelines time and cost.

The next codebase to analyse is cal.com. This repo is larger than jsoncrack. It is a monorepo with packages and lots of stuff going behind the scenes.

hey, peer here from cal.com. we have an issue where we track all individual caldav implementations: https://github.com/calcom/cal.com/issues/9990

Cal - Alternative to Calendly

I force clients who want to talk to me to book a call. I use cal.com (free) and my Google Calendar (which its linked to) only allows calls on specific days/times. I have a few "Call Blocks" where they can book. That let's me do calls in a small section of my week, with ample downtime to recover the rest of the week. I'm still learning how many calls a day I can handle. Currently anything more than 2 is too much.

Cal.com- Cal.com is a scheduling tool that helps you schedule meetings without the back-and-forth emails.

Peer Rich (CEO at Cal.com)

Has any one deployed cal.com with selfhosted environment. Is yes how would have configured prisma for the same.

Recently I came across a company called cal.com, it's a Calendly alternative, but the catch is the entire software is open source: https://github.com/calcom/cal.com.

ExcaliDraw

However, Notion and Obsidian can only help you write documentation. Well, how about some visuals? Let's talk about Excalidraw.

Fun fact: I used GA in Excalidraw, and it's still powering some of the interactions! https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/package...

I was happy to find out recently that there is a way to make Mermaid diagrams WYSIWYG / drag and drop editable that the open source https://excalidraw.com has and did I mention it's open source!? With a LLM, you can go full loop back to Mermaid again after a few rounds of manual editing. "What a time to be alive!"

I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.

Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:

https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.

https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.
