Show HN: A Minimal Monthly Task Planner (printable, offline, no signup) (printcalendar.top)

94 points by defcc ↗ HN
Hi HN,

I built a tiny tool because I couldn’t find a clean, distraction-free monthly planner that:

1. shows a clean monthly task view 2. doesn’t require an account 3. doesn’t sync or store anything online 4. works offline 5. is printable 6. and keeps a minimal, distraction-free aesthetic

So I made https://printcalendar.top/ — a minimal monthly task planner.

It’s intentionally simple. No logins, no integrations, no dashboards. Just a small tool for people who want structure without clutter.

I really like your Minimal Monthly Task Planner, is it also responsive? Great idea, simple, I like the side notes; if possible, I'd add a list above or below.

Thanks, I'll use it and print it at home.

Looks great. I like simple, useful tools.

Is it worth a) adding a link to your source repo (if it exists) b) add a license somewhere? c) add a README on how to self-host (even if simple).

It seems not possible to drag and drop from one day to another.

Wonderful. I wish there was the possibility to sync data among browsers, but that would probably defy the whole purpose of this. Is there a repository?

I love the simplicity! Does this store state in the browser?

Have you considered adding an export/import data option? I was actually expecting "Copy link" to have my months worth of event data encoded in the url after the # (so it would never be sent to the server, but means I could share the month with a friend). Just an idea.

I accessed it with Safari and directly click "Print/PDF". It will be better if:

- Default orientation is Landscape

- Calendar is be printed in a full page format

On Firefox it just gets stuck on "Preparing Preview" when pressing the print button...

Solid execution! Thank you.

Next/Previous month buttons appear in the print output. It's like seeing a hyperlink in a book :) Maybe those could be hidden.

Other than that I like the idea. More and more I look for apps that do one simple thing and do it well.

Very nice!!

Does it not print the notes? I tried to print a month and it is not showing any notes in the preview.
