PlanWell Focus is a fast, read-only timeline viewer for markdown-native planning.
App requires a valid local absolute path in `vault_path` (config file: ~/.planwell/focus.toml).
Fast test path:
1) Click “Download Starter Vault”
2) Set `vault_path` to the downloaded folder absolute path
3) Click “Reload”
Alternative:
Use any existing local markdown vault/folder path.
Important:
`/absolute/path/to/vault` is an example placeholder and not a valid real path.
What Focus does:
- Shows timetable classes, multi-day events, and weekly todos
- Reads from your local markdown vault
- Hot-reloads changes from your files
- Keeps your data local and private
What Focus does not do:
- No in-app create/edit for classes, events, or todos
- No drag-and-drop timeline editing
- No cloud lock-in
Typical workflow:
1. Create or edit markdown in Obsidian (or any editor)
2. Focus auto-refreshes and renders your timeline
3. Use Focus as your fast visual lens
Who this is for:
- Obsidian and markdown power users
- Teachers and planners who prefer file-first workflows
- Users who want speed, simplicity, and local ownership
PlanWell Focus is intentionally minimal: one job, done well.
