Kitsmith / Meetings / Mini Calendar
A free menu bar and Dock calendar with an optional always-on-desktop view, plus sunrise and sunset times.
Our take
A decade-old, still-maintained utility from solo developer Mykola Olshevskyi, published as AntLogic: open a monthly calendar from the menu bar, the Dock, a keyboard shortcut, or a Notification Center widget, with an optional always-on-desktop calendar that sits above the wallpaper. No accounts, no subscription — just a calendar glance where you already look.
