Vanilla Calendar
A full-featured Google Calendar clone built with zero dependencies. Create events, drag to reschedule, switch between day/week/month views — all in vanilla JavaScript.
About Vanilla Calendar
Vanilla Calendar puts a full scheduling interface in your browser — create events, drag them to new time slots, and flip between day, week, and month views just as you would in Google Calendar. Everything runs in plain JavaScript with no external libraries, so it loads fast and works entirely client-side. It's a capable daily planner for anyone who wants a familiar calendar layout without handing data to a third-party service.
The week view is where it earns its keep. Hourly rows stack up quickly, and having the full grid visible on a larger screen means you can read event titles without squinting or scrolling sideways. Click any empty slot to create an event, or drag an existing one to reschedule — the interaction feels close to the real thing. This sits comfortably in the productivity category alongside dedicated task tools, though if you prefer managing work as a checklist rather than a timed block, Task Manager is worth a look.
No account or setup required — open it and start adding events immediately, though note that data lives in your browser session, so treat it as a planning scratch pad rather than a permanent record.
