    ReCalendar - highly customizable calendar for ReMarkable tablets

  • Then I realized - PDF files can have embedded file attachments :) So I'm saving the configuration file inside the generated PDF calendar. So if you ever want to reload the same settings (they are backwards compatible), you just upload the same PDF file (of course, PDF parsing happens on the client-side only as well). It's much safer approach and more intuitive - you will always have your PDF calendar file :)

    In case you give my server the hug of death, the app is also available on GitHub Pages: https://recalendar.klimer.eu/

    While the current version is tested only on ReMarkable tablets, it should be fairly easy to add support for other devices. Please open a new issue on GitHub, ideally with the specification of the device (screen size in pixels or mm).
