Plan a whole quarter on one screen: your categories down the side, the weeks across the top.
Type into any block — it saves to this browser, never to a server — then print it as a landscape wall chart.
Autosave is unavailable in this preview. Download the file and open it in your browser — entries will then save automatically on this device.
Type directly into any block — entries autosave to this browser. Click a column header to zoom in: a week header opens that week, a day header opens that day. Week and Day views share one note per day; the Quarter note shows as a read-only title when you zoom in. Hatched = time off (vacation / holiday). Export creates a JSON backup you can move between devices. Click Configure to set your own categories, dates, and time off.
About the Quarterly Time Planner
The Quarterly Time Planner is a free, single-page web app for planning where your time goes over a
quarter — or any date range you set. Your categories (day job, fitness, family, a hobby, a side hustle,
whatever you're juggling) run down the left as rows; the weeks run across the top as columns. Click any
block, type the plan for that week, and it saves straight to your own browser.
It exists for the zoom-out view a calendar app can't give you: a whole quarter at a glance, so you can
see that the side project keeps losing to the day job, or that three of your four weeks off land in the
same month. When you need detail, switch to Week view for one column per day, or Day view
for a stacked card per category.
What it does
Quarter, week, and day views — one column per week, one per day, or a card per category. A
note written in Quarter view follows you down as a read-only title when you zoom in.
Autosaves to your device — every block is written to your browser's local storage as you
type. No account, no signup, no server.
Your categories, your colors — set them, plus the date range, in the Configure dialog.
Vacations and holidays — mark time off and it shades on the chart, so you plan around it
instead of over it.
Prints as a wall chart — landscape layout with the controls hidden; blocks you left empty
print as blank ruled lines to fill in by hand.
JSON export and import — move a plan between browsers or devices, or keep a backup.
Installable — add it to a phone or tablet home screen and it opens like an app.
Free and open source — MIT licensed, so you can fork it or host your own copy.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Quarterly Time Planner free?
Yes. It is free to use, with no account, no signup, and no paid tier. The source is published under
the MIT license, so you can fork it, change it, or host your own copy.
Where is my planner data stored?
In your own browser's local storage, on the device you are using. Nothing you type is uploaded —
there is no server behind the planner. Because storage is per browser, use Export to save a
JSON backup and Import to load it on another device.
Can I change the categories, dates, and time off?
Yes. Click Configure to set the title, the start and end dates, your categories and their
colors, plus vacations and holidays. Your settings are saved in that browser, so each visitor
configures their own planner without affecting anyone else.
Can I print the quarterly planner?
Yes. Click Print for a landscape layout with the on-screen controls hidden. Blocks you left
empty print as blank ruled lines, so you can fill the chart in by hand.
Does it work on a phone or tablet?
Yes. The planner works in a mobile browser, and because it ships a web app manifest and icons you
can add it to your home screen and open it like an app.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It is a single HTML page with no build step and no runtime dependencies. Once the page has
loaded, planning, editing, and printing all work without a network connection.
Configure
"Weekdays only" greys the row out on weekends, holidays, and vacation. Reordering or removing a category can shift where existing notes appear.
