       | will be nice to have.

       | Now if someone made one with the ability to drag colored blocks

       | Nice. I did something in 2020 in a spreadsheet to calculate some
       | sort of a Big Picture Timeline of the family with a our own
       | definition of Success and Failures. For me, I found that it is
       | easier to see Weekends in a Straight line rather than the
       | starting date (I have school going kids).
       | 
       | I did it pretty manually because this is something I do once
       | every year around the year-end.
       | 
       | Here is the Google Sheet Template. Change/Add/Edit the "YYYY"
       | sheet to the year you want and fix the dates (should not take you
       | more than 5-min). I have included the year a family member is
       | born in the "Data" sheet to calculate the key events in life -
       | Kids Graduation, and whatever else you want to in sync with you,
       | your partner's age, and any event you want to track.

       | The page's html and css are reasonably small, 3.3kB and 1.5kB.
       | There are three fonts, totalling about 51kB. So altogether about
       | 56kB.
       | 
       | But then somewhat spoiling the page's nice light weight is a
       | 576kB favicon.

       | Neatnik is a very nice project.

       | I've been thinking about the same challenge. Most calendars feel
       | too rigid and don't really work well when your goals or routines
       | shift over time. I started building something called BeaverGrow,
       | a simple dashboard with separate widgets for goals, habits,
       | notes, and timelines. The idea is to let you piece things
       | together the way you want, kind of like Lego blocks.
       | 
       | It's still pretty minimal, but if you're curious, you can check
       | it out at https://beavergrow.com
