Timegrid
This summer, I’m working as a UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunity) at MIT’s CSAIL. I don’t think I’ve ever made a post about my actual project, Timegrid, so I think I’ll do that now.
My task is to design and develop a client-side Javascript framework that takes event data in some format (iCal, XML, etc.) and renders it out to a number of different, configurable, dynamic views. What kind of views will Timegrid support? For starters, it will support all of the views that Google Calendar is currently capable of: weekly, monthly, etc. Timegrid is more flexible than Google Calendar though. Imagine that you want to render a table of events happening in various locations, and you want each column to represent a different room, and each row to represent a starting time. Timegrid will be able to handle that as well.
Timegrid is designed to be easily configurable, incredibly flexible and customizable, clean, and beautiful. Good thing I have all summer to work on it.
Hey, can you add me to your mailing list? I’m interested in using your project. I’m currently using iCal > SpanningSync > Google > phpicalendar… it’s not great.
Shoot me an email.
Oh, and Matt and Jess are great.
Hi,
Just wondering what the status of timegrid is. It’s seems cool but I cannot even see an example, the examples seem to choke on . Would timegrid work if I download the source code and run it locally? After all the work you did, it would be a pity to see it just die there…
Cheers,
Fred
