Date Calculator

Ages, spans and date arithmetic, docked in the side pane of every file type and as an optional floating widget. Built for the questions a manuscript asks: how old is she in this scene, how long between these two chapters, what day of the week was that.

An age worked out beside the scene it belongs to

Features

  • Age: completed years (만 나이) with the exact years / months / days, days lived, the weekday you were born on, and a countdown to the next birthday
  • Korean counting age (세는 나이) and the year age (연 나이), each toggleable
  • Between two dates: total days, the calendar breakdown, weeks + days, and the weekday of each end; optionally counting the end date
  • Add / subtract days, weeks, months or years from any date, with the resulting weekday and how far it is from today
  • Copy or insert the result into the open document or sheet
  • Commands: Insert today's date, Toggle floating widget
  • The same dates everywhere: side pane, floating widget, and the tray chip and bottom sheet on phones

Usage

Enable the plugin and a calendar toggle appears in the header of every file: document, sheet, plotboard, canvas, folder view or task. Click it and the calculator docks in that file's side pane, beside the editor: pick a mode, type the dates, and they stay on screen while you write.

Prefer it floating over the text? Settings → Date Calculator → Show floating widget, or run the toggle command. Both surfaces share one set of dates.

Date format, which ages are shown, and whether a span counts its end date all live in the same settings tab.

A birthday on 29 February counts as 1 March in common years (the convention Korean and Japanese civil practice share), so a leap-day birthday still comes around every year.
