Year Progress Calculator: Now Open Source on GitHub! 🎉


Hey, everyone! 🚀 I’m thrilled to announce that my Year Progress Calculator is now officially open source and living on GitHub! As of today, March 10, 2025, I’ve moved the project from my self-hosted setup to its own repository, where anyone can check out the code, use it, or even contribute. Find it here: jasonbra1n/year-progress-calculator. Let’s dive into what this tool is all about and how you can play with it! 🧠

What’s the Year Progress Calculator? 📅

This fun little tool helps you track how far we are into the year. It’s interactive, visual, and super easy to use. Here’s the rundown:

  • Pick any date (month and day). ✍️
  • See the progress: Find out what percentage of the year has passed (e.g., today, March 10, is about 18.9% of a 365-day year). 📊
  • Visualize it: Watch it come to life in a pie chart, with the year as a 360-degree circle. 🥧
  • Leap year mode: Toggle for those rare 366-day years. 🌟

I originally built this as a fun side project for my personal lab, and now it’s open source, so everyone can join the party! 🎈

When I posted this (March 10th 2025), it shows we’ve completed 69 days of 2025 (non-leap year), which translates to roughly 68 degrees of our year-circle. Play with the embedded version above to explore more! 🔄

What’s Next? 🚀

I’m excited to see where this goes now that it’s out in the open. Maybe someone adds a new visualization, or tweaks it for specific use cases—I’m all ears for suggestions. Drop your ideas in the comments below, and if you love it, give the repo a star! ⭐

Happy tracking, friends! 🎉
