So here is the problem I wanted to solve for my wife and myself with our toddler:

- Who does the night routine tonight ?

- How to manage that with evening activities ?

- How to keep it fair ?

So I built a small Go application meant to be selfhosted and fully integrated with Google Calendar.

The app will create day event telling which parent turn is it to do the night routine, you can also configure what days each parent in unavailable. The app will take care of create a schedule that is fair to both parent and avoid unbalanced time.

Also, you can directly go in Google Calendar to override any event created to give it to another parent, the app will then recalculate the folow-up assignment to keep everything fair.

I provide a docker image, docker compose and explanation on how to get your API Keys for Google Console.
