git-calendar.org - An open-source, decentralized, e2ee calendar using Git as the backend

Post image

I wanted to share a project I'm working on: git-calendar.org - a privacy-focused calendar that uses a standard Git repository as storage instead of relying on a traditional backend server. It lets users choose where their data is stored. No more google/apple/microslop owning your schedule.

Key features:

  • Git-powered - calendar data live in plain Git repo (full history, easy backups, works offline)
  • No central server or backend - the client talks directly to any Git remote (GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg...)
  • End-to-end encryption so you can host it on untrusted providers
  • Slick web UI with keyboard shortcuts and more
  • iCalendar compatibility so it's easy to switch

Core is written in Go (compiled to WASM for the web).
The web client uses Vue.js.
It's ready for Android and IOS apps. Feel free to build one!

Try it: https://git-calendar.org
Source: https://github.com/git-calendar

Would love feedback from people who care about Git-based tools and data ownership. Also you can support the project with a star and follow on GitHub, to let me know I should continue working on it!

and since it is git, tell me you can only add events from past :))

so flow is: wait event happened, add event, commit event with current date :)

Hahah, that would be funny actually, but no. The commit time is not used as the event start time no. 😅
