+# Chronological
+Calendar, Diary, Photos
+A single application that combines regualr calendar events, sheduled maintainace and chores, journaling and photos in a single timeline view.
+## The Timeline
+The main view shows a continuous,scrollable calendar grid with monthly sections on the left side.
+Days with events, journal entries or photos are highlighted with a corresponding icon.
+The right side shows a detailed, scrollable timeline view of the selected month, with all events, journal entries and photos displayed in chronological order.
+From either the calendar grid or the timeline view, the user can click on a specific day to see more details or add new entries.
+## Technical Details
+- Build using go and HTMX.
+- Single user application without any login or authentication.
+- App uses server-side rendering with HTMX for dynamic updates.
+- No database, all data is stored in local files.
+## Data Storage
+- Data storage is configurable using a config file
+- The following sources are configurable:
+  - Local path to .ics file for calendar events
+  - Local path to .ics file for diary entries
+  - CalDAV data that syncs calendar events from a remote server and local .ics files
+  - folder path for photos
+- Photos are organized in the following manner:
+  - The photo root folder is configured in the config file.
+  - Inside the root folder, there are subfolders for each year (e.g., "2023", "2024").
+  - Inside each year folder the photos are stored directly.
+  - Photos are named using the following format: "YYYY-MM-DD_description.ext" (e.g., "2024-06-15_BirthdayParty.jpg").
+- The diary entries are stored in an .ics file with each entry representing a journal entry for a specific day.
+- Only one diary entry per day is supported.
+- That entry is always an all-day event called "Chronolog" in the .ics file.
+- The description field of that all-day event contains the actual journal text.
+## Frontend
+- The frontend is built using HTMX for dynamic content updates.
+- TODO: It is not yet deceided what CSS framework to use, if any.
