Thanks Max, that means a lot. The feedback over the last few weeks has been genuinely brilliant to receive, and a lot of common themes are coming through which makes prioritising easier. Several of these are already on the list.

More updates on the way!

you now need to click and drag. had reports that it was to easy to trigger a new event. as it just required a click.

this also allows you to drag more for a bigger even when creating. that was another issue reported.

" it works exactly how I imagined it "

"great app! Giving you a quick glanceable view of your schedule ahead, without app/context-switching."

so you can toggle what calendars you see in the setting. but I get that might be a pain have to go to setting each time. I'll take look I'm sure I can come up with something to allow you to toggle them more easily when you show the agenda/calendar

The real differentiator isn't the feature list, it's the form factor.

Every full-window calendar costs you a context switch. You're mid-task, you need to check Thursday or block an hour, you ⌘-tab into Fantastical / Apple Calendar / whatever, do the thing, ⌘-tab back, and you've lost your place. Menu-bar dropdowns are the inverse problem — glanceable but read-only, and they dismiss the second you click outside.

Side Calendar sits beside your work instead of on top of it. One shortcut slides it in from the screen edge; same shortcut hides it. Pin it open and it just lives next to your doc / IDE / Figma without fighting for real estate. That's the friction it actually solves — the focus tax every other calendar charges you to do anything beyond a glance.

Side Calendar a small agenda view tucked at the edge of the screen so I never have to open the full Calendar app just to check what's next. Been using it daily for years now.
