I find it pretty nice now, great job!


I'd only reorder it a bit, make it a full-page application and add some p=
rune/schedule
documentation - we could maybe just pull that 1:1 from the docs html outp=
ut or
something, it hasn't to be extra long just a short widget explanation and=
 some other
info which would assist users to understand the concepts and plan their s=
chedule
interactively.

I.e., something like the following layout:
