Yellow calendar widget
A yellow calendar widget shows today's date beside your next event. Sunny yellow with dark text for a cheerful screen. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.
What a yellow calendar widget shows
A calendar widget answers two questions: what day is it, and what is next. The date sits in a bold block on the left and the next event takes the right side.
The date works with no permission. Showing events needs Android's calendar permission and a calendar connection, which is a Pro feature in WidgetCraft. Without it you can still build the date block on its own for free.
How the yellow style shapes it
Yellow widgets are bright and optimistic. Yellow is light, so this recipe uses near-black text and a warm orange accent to stay readable.
- Numbers: Keep numbers dark and bold.
- Lists: Dark outline checkboxes.
