GNOME Calendar is an elegant tool to help you plan and stay on top of your schedule for upcoming days and weeks, whether your months are filled with meetings and appointments, public events, travel logistics, or other commitments in your life.
Easily create and manage unlimited calendars and events with GNOME Calendar's infinite scrolling month view, week timetable, and scheduling list view.
Integrating the latest GNOME technologies and design best practices, GNOME Calendar builds on top of the mature Evolution data server to manage large quantities of events and to provide integration with other applications. You can add calendars from various online calendaring services (like NextCloud, Google Calendar, and CalDAV / WebDAV servers), enabling you to synchronize your events across multiple devices and platforms. GNOME Calendar also supports local and offline calendaring, so you can use it anywhere and anytime while travelling (or after civilization's collapse.)
GNOME Calendar 51.0 is now available!
This is a remarkable release for us, as it is one of the biggest releases in the history of the project, and we're excited to share a slightly longer update on it.
The first thing many users will notice is how GNOME Calendar will feel snappier now. During the past six months, a lot of work was put in optimizing GNOME Calendar from the inside out. This includes a major change in how it handles events internally, vastly reducing the amount of data transferred between GNOME Calendar and other components of the desktop, and applying many different tricks and strategies to make it render faster. Really, this is probably the most optimized the project has ever been.
Another front in which GNOME Calendar has been consistently improving is accessibility and keyboard navigation. During this development cycle, another big batch of improvements on these fronts were merged. You can now navigate between events and days in the Month view using only your keyboard. The Week view is now properly styled when the high-contrast setting is enabled.
The event editor dialog was another area of focus, with a variety of cleanups and improvements. In particular, the Notes section of the event editor dialog received a visual shift.
A few other highlights:
On the non-technical side, in the past few months the project received contributions from many new contributors, as well as long time contributors. Our issue tracker continues to be in excellent shape, well triaged, and properly labeled. Our three latest releases were the biggest releases in the history of the project. Thank you all very much for using, developing, documenting, translating, testing, and fixing GNOME Calendar!
