Finally a good self-hosted calendar frontend

Hello all, I'm the developer.

It seems there's been a containment breach and word of my passion project got out.

No, there are no screenshots in the README yet. I wasn't expecting to attract a lot of attention yet and I wasn't going to spread the word of the project before I felt comfortable enough to release the 1.0.0 version. Hence, I have been investing my time in building the functionality rather than focusing on "marketing".

Since there does seem to be a sizeable interest in the project, I will expedite writing a presentable README and other documentation as my current priority.

Remember, I'm just a singular developer with other responsibilities and worries on my mind, too. I hope the current lack of screenshot doesn't undermine the effort that I've put into the project thus far.

In any case; I hear you. Again, I'll get on to the screenshots and more complete installation/configuration guides ASAP.

EDIT: The README has been updated!

Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller & Steam Frame

There are a lot of specs missing from what the streets were hoping for from the holy grail of VR headsets, but I'm starting to believe that they are not going for that. It seems they want to win in the mid-range market competing directly with Meta. Honestly, "Quest 3 without Meta" is already very compelling. I guess it's not all down to how competitively they decide to price it. "Cheaper than Index" is already good news for my wallet at least.

Anon studies Organic Chemistry

I love the correction system we have at my university. All the exams are pseudonymized with a sticker you receive during the exam and scanned after completion. About 10 to 30 people are involved in correcting the exams for one course. We don't know who the exams belong to as we only see the scanned version on our tablet or computer. Each task is corrected by a different set of people. We can select to see only a single task or subtask to streamline the process of correction, too. Furthermore, all the tasks are checked twice independently. Once done, the system can assign the exams back to the students. I love how it's fair and "anonymous" by design.

By now I'm convinced they just let some slop machine black out all names except for some whitelisted stuff. I mean, we've seen a link in the bash manual, the face of Mona Lisa, and occurrences of just the word "don't" blacked out. Why would it be any different for people's names.
