The future of GNOME Calendar

Georges Stavracas

Today, the Calendar Team had the first meeting in history. Isaque, Lapo, Renata, Vamsi and I attended it, and the meeting was extremely productive! In fact, we were able to sketch out the general direction that GNOME Calendar will head towards.

What’ll be added

Lets start talking about the additions that Calendar will have.

A New Sidebar

Our design samurai came up with this idea and it was immediately completely welcomed. We want to do a simpler, less cluttered version of this:

The search would behave just like the redesigned GNOME Control Center, and in fact, using a sidebar fixes many issues we currently have with GNOME Calendar, like the search popover and random glitches all around.

The sidebar will be able to be hidden, just like Nautius’ sidebar, so people can have their old Calendar again, behaving just like it used to behave. Stay tuned.
