CSS calendar and time-planner examples

Calendars and time planners are a natural fit for radial layouts — time is cyclical, and a circle expresses that more honestly than a grid does. Orbit lets you build year-at-a-glance dials, Chronodex-style day planners, and bullet-journal-inspired schedules out of plain HTML and CSS, which means they can be themed, animated, and updated from JavaScript like any other component.

Below: a circular year calendar worth its own page, plus a Chronodex day-planner example inline as a quick reference.

Quick reference: Chronodex day planner

A Chronodex is a radial day planner where each hour of the day is a wedge, and you fill the wedge to mark how you spent (or plan to spend) that time. It started as a paper-journaling technique and translates beautifully to CSS — every wedge is just a sector of an arc on an orbit.
