nocal v0.1.0 released

After months of development, we're excited to announce the first public release of nocal v0.1.0 for Mac, now fully integrated with Google Calendar.

nocal is built for busy people who want a focused calendar that doesn't overwhelm them. Instead of a cluttered grid, nocal puts the current day front and center—while still letting you peek ahead when needed. It's also a note-taking app, meaning you can organize your thoughts alongside your schedule in a seamless way.

With this release, nocal brings a new level of simplicity and power to time management and personal organization.

What's New in v0.1.0?

This first version of nocal includes all the core features that make it a unique productivity app:

📅 A Focused Calendar (Without the Clutter)

• The calendar is hidden by default—except for the current day.
• Instantly peek ahead into the week with simple hot-key navigation.
• AI-powered event tagging highlights only the most notable events.

📝 Notes That Work with Your Calendar

• A weekly AI-generated note helps you plan your week at a glance.
• Markdown support means you can write naturally without complex formatting tools.
• Quickly add calendar events from within your notes—no switching apps.

⚡ Productivity-First Features

• NLP booking: Type naturally (e.g., "Lunch with Alex at 12pm Friday") to create events instantly.
• Google Calendar integration (Outlook coming soon).
• Secondary calendars are hidden by default—expand them only when needed.
• Speedy meetings: End events 5 minutes early for breathing room between back-to-back calls.

Why nocal?

Most calendar apps force you into a rigid, structured view of time. But not everyone works that way. nocal is different—it's designed to be flexible, minimal, and fast, so you can stay focused without distraction.

With deep note integration, you don't just see your events—you organize your thoughts and tasks around them. It's a true hybrid of a calendar and note-taking app.
