Toolkit Study and deadline planner
Study and deadline planner
Big deadlines become small sessions on the days you actually have.

How to use it
- On Tasks, add each thing you need to finish, with its due date and how much time it still needs.
- On My time, say how many minutes you can study on each day, how long one session should be, and how many days before the due date you want to finish. Add any days off.
- Choose how to place the sessions: a little each day, or as early as possible.
- On Plan, see what to do today, then the whole plan day by day.
- After each session, press I did a session. It takes that time off the task and updates the plan.
- Copy or print the plan, or save a calendar file to get reminders.
Good to know
- The planner does simple arithmetic and fair sharing. It does not know how hard a task is or how long it will really take you. Your time estimates matter most, so add some extra if you are not sure.
- Tasks are placed in order of their deadlines, earliest first. If everything can fit, everything will fit. If it cannot, the plan names each task that is short of time and by how many sessions.
- The plan always starts from today. If you skip a session, nothing is lost: the time stays on the task and the plan spreads it over the days that are left.
- The calendar file (.ics) puts the sessions of one day one after another from your usual start time, with a 10 minute break between them. Check that the times look right before you save them, and move them in your calendar app if you like.
- Your tasks and settings are saved only on this device.

Brain dump and sort
Get everything out of your head, sort it one item at a time, and let the tool pick one thing from Today when choosing feels impossible.
Get started: one small step
Name the task, shrink the first step until it feels easy, then do just that step with a timer.
Visual timer and focus cycles
A shrinking colored dial shows time passing. Use one timer, or repeating focus and break rounds.
Leave-on-time planner
Tell it when you need to be there. It works backward to show when to leave and when to start getting ready.
