Lately I keep catching myself with so many projects and commitments that I can't keep track anymore. Some stretch years ahead — travel, deadlines, book launches, article shipments, all competing for the same calendar slots and mental bandwidth. If Google Calendar and per-project kanban boards in Obsidian used to be enough, now I need to see everything at once, in one place, at one glance. I searched the open web and found nothing that fit.
My colleague Maxim Osovsky built exactly what I needed: WallPlan — a wall calendar on a continuous paper roll. You hang it on the wall and see your entire year, or two, or three, or twenty. When you see two years at a glance, you start making different decisions. You see where there's no rush and where you're already late. You see the gaps between trips where you can actually write. You see the cluster of deadlines coming six months from now that looks harmless in a monthly view but terrifying at scale.
I configured mine for 24 months. Nothing stays in my head anymore — I can literally look up and see when the book draft is due, when articles need to ship, when trips happen, when I have empty months to breathe. The calendar becomes external memory.
What WallPlan does:
Scale — from 1 year to 20 years. I picked two years. The roll is as long as your wall allows.
Aesthetics — If you like July burning orange and December turning blue, turn on color months. If you prefer austere black and white, turn it off.
Your own events — click any date, add your deadline, trip, or launch. Not prefilled holidays from some generic list. Your actual life.
Gantt lanes — up to 10 tracks below the calendar, each a separate timeline: a project, a person, a habit, whatever you want to watch stretch across months. This was exactly the missing piece I didn't know I needed until I saw it.
Language & holidays — switch between Russian, Chinese, English, Hebrew, Arabic. Holidays on or off per region. I don't need RU/CN, turned them off.
Export — SVG or PDF, then print at any copy shop and actually hang it.
If planning is your pain too, try it:
