- aruggirello 9y ago> calendar you can add events to (does a modern desktop calendar for Linux even exist)? I don't know about Gnome - but KDE has both a desktop calendar/organizer app (Korganizer) and a (unrelated) Plasma widget for the toolbar - the gorgeous Event Calendar Plasma widget, which shows your Google Calendar events.
- moosingin3space 9y agoThere is a Gnome calendar app: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Calendar https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Calendar.
- gurkendoktor 9y agoAnd then there's also https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/California https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/California And of course elementaryOS has its own GTK+3-based calendar: https://launchpad.net/maya https://launchpad.net/maya So basically, the same situation as with mail clients, photo apps, music players, ... I wish the GNOME world would decide to just merge all the features into one app per task and then kill the others.
