LightPlan - Reminder & Planner vs Octal Sun Time
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
LightPlan - Reminder & Planner
Light Planner is a FOSS, simple, and intuitive app that will help you with planning events, tasks, or achievements you want to reach! ============== How does it work? ============== • Add your tasks in a chosen year quarter • Write up a title and a description and pick a deadline for it That’s it! Upon entering the task area, you will be shown the time you have left to complete it and (optionally) the subtasks you have created in it. ============== Who is it made for? ============== Anyone! No matter the age or height, you can use the app to plan ahead and keep track of the time you have left to complete it at any time. ============== How is it different from other apps? ============== This app was designed to be simple and intuitive, while still looking slick and unintrusive. We also don’t collect any data from users (everything is stored on your device), which means you don’t have to create/link an account and you won’t have to deal with any pesky ads! Additionally, the project is open-source, so if you feel like changing or adding features, you can do it! (link to the project repository: https://github.com/XDDK/LightPlan). I hope you'll find this app useful!
Octal Sun Time
A clock that shows the octal solar time of your chosen location. Octal solar time is a location-specific time system that defines a day as the time between two consecutive solar midnights. Known to contain 24 hours in the regular clock system, a day is divided into 8 equally long octal hours. Each octal hour is divided into 64 equally long octal minutes. Each octal minute is divided into 64 equally long octal seconds. The clock is visualized by an hour finger that runs one cycle per day, with 0 (solar midnight) at the bottom and 4 (solar noon) at the top. In addition, the octal hour and minute is also shown digitally as a three-digit octal number in the center. A golden arch visualizes the time between sunrise and sunset. Locations can be managed and chosen. Locations can be added by an online search function backed by wikidata. Privacy notice: When using the location search function, the app connects to a wikidata server and shares your typed search term in order to get search results. This is the only situation when the app uses internet connection.
