What is Hyperscheduling

Hyperscheduling is the idea of fully planning your day using a calendar. Every minute of the day is assigned to some task using a calendar.

What does org-hyperscheduler do?

org-hyperscheduler presents a web UI that allows agenda entries to be visualized and moved around easily.

Here’s a typical agenda (C-c a a):

and here is how it’s visualized in org-hyperscheduler:

blue entries are coming from an external calendar (such as org-gcal).
purple entries are part of standard org-agenda.

The user is free to modify entries or move them around provided org-hyperschedule-readonly-mode is disabled.

Planning A Day

When planning a day, it’s easy to start with a list of tasks:

and then visualize them to ensure that capacity is available:

Real quick demo of what the package does:

Installation

org-hyperschedule is not currently available in MELPA. Once the package matures, it will be added.

For now you can either download the source and install it manually or with use-package and straight.el:

(use-package org-hyperscheduler
  :straight
  ( :repo "dmitrym0/org-hyperscheduler"
    :host github
    :type git
    :files ("*")))

You can also use quelpa and install with the snippet below:

(package-install 'quelpa-use-package)
(require 'quelpa-use-package)

(use-package org-hyperscheduler
  :quelpa (org-hyperscheduler :fetcher github :repo "dmitrym0/org-hyperscheduler"))

You can then invoke M-x org-hyperscheduler-open to invoke the web view.

Configuration

Use M-x customize-group org-hyperscheduler to configure this module.

Read only mode

org-hyperscheduler is able to update entries in Emacs when using the web UI. To suppor this functionality, org-hyperscheduler must create IDs for each scheduled entry. If you are not ok with org-hyperscheduler modifying your data, keep org-hyperscheduler-readonly-mode turned on. In this mode you can visualize your agenda, but cannot make any changes in web UI.

Hiding calendar entries from org-roam

org-roam treats all entries with an :ID: property as roam nodes. This is not what I wanted. org-roam excludes all entries with the G

See org-hyperscheduler-exclude-from-org-roam through M-x customize-group org-hyperscheduler or

(setq org-hyperscheduler-exclude-from-org-roam t)

**Note**: Read only mode must be disabled for this to take effect.
