This is getting a lot of love. Scott Hanselman just posted a (nonspon) Tiktok about using it on his reMarkable.<p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@shanselman/video/7179775955521654058" rel="nofollow">https://www.tiktok.com/@shanselman/video/7179775955521654058</a><p>It feels like something that's fairly easy to DIY, but they've priced it so it's not worth the time.
Single Page App being one-upped by a Single PDF App! Wild idea here! It's so neat what we can do with a flexible medium.<p>> <i>The planner is just a pdf file, so you load it onto your tablet like you would any other pdf or ebook file. The steps vary depending on the device you're using</i>
This is great; I had a thought that something similarly writable on tablets, but designed for tabletop RPGs would be great. The best of both worlds.<p>I use 5e Companion App on my phone, and find the interface is great. I have a Boox Note that I would love to have a way of tracking dynamic info (like spells) with the ability to write or erase overtop for things like notes, or maybe even HP...<p>I'm not exactly sure how it would work, but does anyone know if there is something like this out there? Some aspects could be handled through PDF links I suppose.

This is not an attack on this app in particular; it looks very nice.<p>But every time another calendar/planner/to-do manager comes into the spotlight, I wonder about why people keep building these. Are the current leading apps not good? Is this just a very common "first app" kind of like how issue tracker/ticket systems seem to be reinvented endlessly? Or maybe the fundamental difficulty with managing calendars/tasks/to-dos is not the app, but the essential difficulty of the task?<p>This is coming from a person who doesn't have a complicated calendar, so the default app on my phone has always been more than adequate.
This is cool! I've made my own last year, but it took some time - I'd have probably paid $20 to skip the effort. Being personalized means I can have a few tasks show up every weekday which is handy.
How would one automate copying entries from Google calendar into a system like this? I'm fine with building a bespoke script on my remarkable tablet to pull from Google calendar, but I have no idea how you'd put that data into a pdf.<p>Are there any decent Linux CLI tools to edit pdfs this way?
I don't understand the point of paper/PDF calendars in a world where we are able to synchronise calendar events across devices and receive timely notifications wherever we want them.<p>I guess some people just prefer carrying around a dedicated calendar and checking that manually for whatever reason?
