Description

A Chrome extension designed to enhance and personalize your Google Calendar experience.

Currently allows you to have full control of your Google Calendar events with custom colors. Add new colors to your palette in the extensions popup menu to see more color options in your calendar! More features to come.

Source Code: github.com/bryanhuangg/gcal-hue

Patch Notes:
==========
Version 1.0.4 (5/3/2024)
- Color selector now shows up properly in event editing.
- Text color changes to white if custom color is too dark.
- Small cosmetic bugs resolved.

Version 1.0.3 (3/10/2024)
- Updated color overlay code to replace all found HTML colors of an event rather then query for specific class names: should reduce instances of event colors not changing.

Version 1.0.2 (2/2/2024)
- Fixed issue where event colors do not change properly due to Google Calendar update.

I do use Gcal some on my phone, but not the biggest deal that it does not show on mobile since I mainly use Gcal for detailed scheduling on my laptop. I do however, wish it did apply to all the events in the series. But I am so happy now to not have to 'share' colors with certain types of events as there is just not enough stock colors for all my event types and I don't want to make multiple calendars where you CAN add more colors. I am glad there are others out there that also wanted more colors!! Thanks for making it!! Oh! AND, you can even use your own hex ####! Awesome!!!

Pretty on the desktop app, but when I look at the calendar on my ipad the colors, they don't transfer. Spent a lot of time updating the colors on my calendar just to realize it did nothing across the app! Sad! Also the reason it took so long to update the calendar in the first place is because it won't apply to event series! Again, it's pretty on the desktop but definitely would be better with a few updates.
