A customizable daily planner system designed specifically for reMarkable tablet, however could very easily be adopted for any other screen size. In its default form it uses monospace font because I'm a software engineer.
There are two main variants, one that excludes weekends (Sat/Sun) and one that includes them. Additionally, special dates (holidays, etc.) can be marked via a CSV file (USA and Canada, Ontario included as examples).
Everything is fully configurable through src/config.typ if you want to generate your own version.
The planner generates a PDF with three main components:
Pages are grouped to make day-to-day navigation easy: all Daily Planner pages are generated as one chronological block (so you can flip back/forward between days), followed by all Daily Notes pages as a separate chronological block.
- Year overview with navigation to any day
- Quick visual reference for planning sprints and releases
- By default, weekends (Sat/Sun) are excluded from the calendar (use
--weekends=trueto include them)
Structured for engineering workflows:
- Top Priority: For critical tasks that must be completed
- Primary: Primary tasks for the day, typically work related
- Secondary: Other tasks, typically personal
Each page includes:
- Date and week number for sprint planning
- Navigation links to corresponding notes and calendar
- Configurable line spacing for different writing preferences
Special dates (from CSV) can also be visually marked in the calendar view and shown in the daily header (e.g. Friday New Year's Day).
Meetings notes, etc.
Pre-built PDF planners are available for direct download:
- 2026, No locale, No weekends
- 2026, No locale, Weekends
- 2026, USA, No weekends
- 2026, USA, Weekends
- 2026, Canada Ontario, No weekends
- 2026, Canada Ontario, Weekends
All aspects of the planner are configurable through src/config.typ:
// Inputs and helpers
#import "lib/options.typ" as options
#import "lib/holidays.typ" as special_dates_lib
// Year for the planner (passed via `--input year=...`)
#let year = int(sys.inputs.at("year", default: "2025"))
// Weekends are excluded by default.
// Set `--input weekends=true` (or use `--weekends=true` in scripts) to include weekends.
// This affects both the daily pages and the calendar view.
// Typography
#let font = "DejaVu Sans Mono"
// Special dates
// Set by build scripts via `--country` (default: usa). Use `--country=none` to disable.
// Special date definitions are read from `dates-YYYY-COUNTRY.csv` in the repo root.
// CSV format: date,style,label (e.g. 2026-01-01,fade,New Year's Day)
// Supported styles: strike, fade
#let special_dates = special_dates_lib.special-dates(year, options.country())
// Calendar rendering configuration
#let calendar = (
// Note: calendar.weekends means "include weekends".
weekends: options.weekends(),
// 0..255 gray level, where 0=black and 255=white.
fade: 200,
// line thickness for `style=strike`.
strike_thickness: 0.8pt,
// 0..255 gray level for `style=strike` (normal cells).
strike_color: 100,
// Horizontal gap between months in the year view.
column_gap: if options.weekends() { 5mm } else { 15mm },
)
// Device Support - Pre-configured for reMarkable devices:
// - reMarkable 1: 158mm × 210mm
// - reMarkable 2: 158mm × 210mm (default)
// - reMarkable Pro: 158mm × 210mm
