You know what I hate about most planning apps? They try to do everything.
Gantt charts. Kanban boards. Team collaboration. AI assistants. Integrations with 47 different services.
And then you want to change the background color?
"Upgrade to Pro for $9.99/month" 💀
I just wanted to plan my week.
So I built Dowe — a dead simple weekly planner that does exactly what it says.
## 🎯 What It Does
- 7-day weekly view — See your entire week at a glance
- Drag & drop — Reorganize tasks effortlessly
- Swipe gestures — Complete tasks by swiping right (mobile-first)
- Monthly/Yearly notes — For bigger picture goals
- 8 beautiful themes — Light & dark modes (yes, for free)
- 12 languages — i18n done right
- No account required — Works offline, your data stays local
## 🛠️ Tech Stack
Built with:
- Next.js 15 (App Router + Turbopack)
- Supabase (PostgreSQL + Auth)
- TailwindCSS
- PWA-ready
## 📱 Mobile-First Philosophy
The app feels native on mobile:
- Swipe right → Complete task
- Swipe left → Uncomplete
- Long press → Move/Copy menu
- Pull to refresh
No clunky mobile adaptations. It was designed for thumbs first.
## 🔗 Try It
Live: dowe.app
It's free. No signup walls. No "premium" upsells. No "you've reached your daily task limit" BS.
What features would you add to your ideal weekly planner? I'm curious what minimal means to others.
## 📱 Android App Coming Soon™
The app is ready. Tested. Works great.
But Google says I need 12 testers to use it for 14 days before I'm allowed to publish it. You know, to protect users from... checks notes ...a to-do list app.

This was a solid read. What stood out to me wasn’t just the minimalist UI, but how clearly you explain why certain constraints exist — it feels like a tool designed to reduce cognitive load, not just look clean.
I had one small thought while reading about how the weekly structure might be framed to make that benefit even clearer for first-time users. Happy to share if you’re open to it.
Thanks! Glad the reasoning behind the constraints came through. I'd definitely like to hear your thoughts on framing the weekly structure for first-time users — always looking to improve that explanation.
Loving the clean design! This would be perfect for organizing my days and weeks. Have you considered adding a feature to share our daily/weekly plans with others?
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like the design. That's actually a great suggestion! I'll work on adding that while keeping the design minimal. Thanks for the feedback!
Looks beautiful 🤩
I had to think a little about the name before understanding that Do is for.. doing and We for week - my 2 cents
Good catch! It's actually a double meaning — 'Do' + 'Week', but also 'Do we?' (as in, will we do it this week?). Maybe a bit too subtle :)
Is this an open source project?
Not open source at the moment, but it's something I'm thinking about for the future once the codebase is more polished.
Nice👍
Thank you AIOR.
