Week view  Month view  Event detail  Event form  Reminder onboarding

Calendula is named after the flower whose name — like the word *calendar* — comes from the Latin *kalendae*, the first day of the month. It lives entirely on top of Android's `CalendarContract`: any calendar synced to your device (CalDAV via DAVx5, Google, local, WebCal subscriptions, …) simply appears, and everything you create or edit syncs back the same way. No own database, no sync stack reinvented. ## ✨ Features **Calendar** - Month, week, and day views with a one-tap view switcher - Full event details — attendees and their responses, reminders, recurrence (humanized), availability, visibility, foreign time zones - Per-calendar visibility toggle, grouped by account **Editing** - Create, edit, and delete events — including recurring events with scoped writes: *only this event*, *this and all following*, or *the whole series* - Recurrence picker with one-tap presets and custom rules (interval, weekday toggles, end conditions); rules it can't express are preserved verbatim - Conflict-safe saves: if an event changed elsewhere while you were editing, Calendula asks instead of silently overwriting - Read-only calendars (WebCal, birthdays) are detected and respected **Reminders** - Event reminders delivered by Calendula itself as notifications — essential when it's your only calendar app, since Android delegates reminder delivery to calendar apps - Tap a reminder to land on the event **Design & privacy** - Real Material 3 Expressive throughout — dynamic color (Android 12+), expressive motion and shapes, light/dark theme - German and English UI, per-app language setting - **Zero telemetry, zero analytics, no internet permission** — your data never leaves the device ## 📦 Install Calendula ships through a self-hosted F-Droid repository; every version tag is built, signed, and published there automatically. 1. Install an F-Droid client ([F-Droid](https://f-droid.org), Droid-ify, Neo Store, …). 2. Add the repository — open this link on your phone, or paste it under *Settings → Repositories → Add*: ``` https://apps.dev.jeanlucmakiola.de/dev/fdroid/repo?fingerprint=968F796B05DF622BBE18AD6FC1D1EF788D5A6DA1FF05BBEC6B7043BF10A09465 ``` Repo: `https://apps.dev.jeanlucmakiola.de/dev/fdroid/repo` · fingerprint (SHA-256): `968F 796B 05DF 622B BE18 AD6F C1D1 EF78 8D5A 6DA1 FF05 BBEC 6B70 43BF 10A0 9465` 3. Refresh, search for **Calendula**, install. Updates arrive like any other F-Droid app. Alternatively, build from source — see below. ## 🛠 Building Requires Android SDK 36+ and JDK 17. The Gradle wrapper is checked in: ```bash ./gradlew assembleDebug # debug APK ./gradlew test # JVM unit tests ./gradlew lint # Android lint ``` If your default JDK is not 17, set `JAVA_HOME` explicitly. ## 🏗 Architecture Single-activity Compose app, layered `UI → Repository → DataSource → CalendarContract`, observer-driven refresh, JVM-first tests. The full tour — including the recurring-write and reminder pipelines — lives in [docs/ARCHITECTURE.md](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md). ## 🗺 Roadmap Shipped: read (v1.0), write (v1.1–v2.0), reminder delivery (v1.4). Next up: power-user features — widget, search, tablet layouts. The living roadmap is in [.planning/ROADMAP.md](.planning/ROADMAP.md), the release history in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md). ## 📜 License [MIT](LICENSE) — Jean-Luc Makiola, 2026
