.

Many years ago I made a manual calendar for displaying any year's entire calendar in same place. I described that manual calendar in a blog post with title Manual Generic Calendar - 210410Sa.

.

At start I used to use that Manual generic calendar I described in a post here from time to time but as I started having access to other means like computers etc I almost stopped using that calendar. Since then I am keeping that calendar in a drawer of my closet in my room safely.

.

I only take that calendar out to show others or to use myself and/or to go back in time when I made it. Some months ago when I was using that calendar and going back in time I got an idea. That idea was to make it's simulator on computer. That idea looked good to me and I started thinking about it.

.

After a few days I started making a software version of that calendar and in a few days completed it's first version. This post is to describe Computer version (I made in 2020) of the Manual version (I made a few decades ago).
