Rolling Calendar (using Datacore)

Created my demo vault and added my Rolling Calendar components made with Datacore.

Web page contains a longer explanation. Short excerpt:

I think that the calendar design where a year is broken into month has serious flaws. The time goes on and doesn’t care about how you slice it.
Long time ago I figured that I could create custom continuous calendars for important time intervals and print them out on paper, to write on them. I was doing these from time to time even up until recent years when I discovered Obsidian.
As my system of Obsidian daily notes was evolving, I needed a similar overview of a time window around current day, where I could see on the calendar everything that links to daily notes.

Now happy to present it to everyone.

Buttons are not doing anything in the exported HTML. Here is some gif to show how they work (vertical buttons on the large one are the same but for weeks):

Typical workspace arrangement for me:
Two panes - left with the rolling week calendar (the big one), right with the daily note.

Wonderful for ADHD me:
No need for elaborate/strict task management. I can link from any note to a follow-up date and will see it ahead of time. And I can see traces of things that happened in recent days.

PS: maybe worth adding the Datacore tag on the forum?
