I’m making the switch to using Neomutt for my email, but I still have calendar data from several accounts I want to access locally. Is there something like neomutt, but for calendar data? Maybe an Obsidian plug-in, or some other OSS app I can configure?

I’m using EndeavourOS (Arch), with the Sway DE, and would prefer staying away from KDE/Gnome based apps.

    For context I’ve been using aerc as my email client for a while now, and was looking for something similar for calendars/tasks myself

    I’ve tried:

    • calcurse: fine but clunky, also a bit difficult to set up. The most mature option and probably the best one available, but I just couldn’t get used to the interface
    • calcure: similarly clunky interface, glitchy/blinking rendering to the point of being headache-inducing, lacking features (couldn’t figure out how to look at all event attributes?)
    • khal: limited in features (compared to calcurse) and slow when there are a lot of events (even when it’s only 2-3 per day), also there are some rendering bugs sometimes. Probably the most intuitive and clean interface of all, and good scripting opportunities.
    • gcalcli: only Google Calendar (I also need support for arbitrary CalDAV), didn’t investigate further
    • plann: no TUI as such, just CLI

    A couple weeks ago I’ve decided to start writing my own. It’s still very much a hacky WIP but I’ll update in this thread if I ever decide to publish it. In the meantime, I hope one of the above works for you!

      I also tried the same options and was not satisfied by any. Good luck with your program! I would be curious to try it when it’s ready.
