# My super simple Google Calendar hack for Obsidian 2025-05-05 **Having both Obsidian and Google Calendar constantly open, was driving me a little crazy because of all the back and forth. Now, one click and I'm there. So simple, so helpful.** Yes, I'm aware of the calendar plugins, but, after trying several options, I'm not happy with any of them. So, I came up with a temporary solution that, to be honest, I'm using for a while and, at least for the moment, it made me stop pursuing other alternatives. Despite its simplicity, it’s been a game-changer for me, and that’s why I decided to share this hack with. What I did was use the relatively new Web View feature to open Google Calendar inside Obsidian. But there's more. I also set the #Google-Calendar tab as pinned, which makes it always open when I open Obsidian. And because I use #Obsidian in dark mode, I also set Google Calendar to dark mode, and it now blends perfectly as if it is an integral part of Obsidian. If you are having a hard time visualizing all this, you can watch the video below. In my case, I had to also change some setting on another plugin, the ‘[Hompage’](https://youtu.be/Bnkfwr5zhW8), which I also explain why and show in the video.  ![[vladcampos.com/Timeline/Blog/Posts|Posts]]
