boltning

Boltning is a thunderbird calendar addon to make it easier to use CalDAV calendars, Lightning. This addon is still under development and should not be used for a productive use case at the moment!

Features

• Extract calendars & colors automatically from caldav accounts
• Dayly, Weekly and Monthly view
• Multiweek view selectable by range
• Sidebar to show upcoming events, that is filterable!

Usage

Until there is an official release from Boltning, you can checkout the git to use Boltning. It works in conjunction with Lightning, so no need to uninstall it!

Windows

1. Go to your thunderbird's profile directory: C:/Users/<user>/Appdata/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/<profile>/
   • <profile> usually ends with .default
2. Go to your extensions directory
3. Checkout the git repository into a directory named boltning@robert.hartung

Unix

1. Go to your thunderbird's profile directory: ~/.thunderbird/<profile>/

• <profile> usually ends with .default

2. You can checkout the git to any location.

• The easiest is to checkout the git into a directory named boltning@robert.hartung directory into the extensions directory.
• You can also checkout git to a common location e.g. ~/git/ and link in the directory. Just make sure you name the target directory exactly boltning@robert.hartung: ln -s -T ~/git/boltning boltning@robert.hartung
