# Using Calendar app

You can access your calendar app by pressing the ![](en/calendar_top_icon.png) icon in the top bar.
*Left-bar* in the calendar window gives you an overview of your calendars, their options and general settings.

--------------
## Create Calendar
To create a new calendar in this options panel press "*create calendar*"
A small prompt will appear where you can type the name you want to give to this new calendar and select a color for it.
Then press "*create*".

You can create multiple calendars for different purposes (work, activism, etc.) by repeating this process. If you do that, you can use different colors to set them apart (last icon is the color picker which allows you to choose any color you want![](en/calendar_colorpick_icon.png)).

You can create a new event in your calendar by clicking in the calendars *main window* simply on the day of the event. A panel will appear on the right side, where you can fill with the information of the event.

In this panel you can specify:

  - event title
  - start and end date
  - start and end time
  - if it's full day event or not
  - event location
  - event description

If you have multiple calendars, in your disroot calendar app, you need to select to which calendar the event goes to. You can do that below the event title field.

And set the time for it.

Just press the reminder you added and the options will show up.

When you're done with everything, just press create at the end of the panel, and your event will appear on the screen
