cross platfrom hebrew dater

[E L]

Hi,

I want to start a cross platform hebrew dater.

- Open source support of time calculations
- Using locations for shkia/zricha according to different opinions
- Database for different events according to different edut and traditions
- Supporting calanders with things like parshiut daf yomi extended hok leisrael and so on.

Any one has requests? Ideas?

I think libhdate is great but designed and implemented using obsolete tools and thinking.

Recently I ran into moment.js which is a node.js supplement (tiny timing library written entirely in JS - http://momentjs.com/), I asked them if there's any possibility to add Hebrew or Hijra calendar, they said that in order to keep this library to a minimum it's not a good option but it would probably be a good idea to write a supplement for moment.js.

Thanks in advance,

Will it work well on cell phones?
I saw there are few other hebrew Calender JS projects.
Does anyone got any experience with them?

Whats wrong with the existing libraries?

For example, my luach gets zmanim from kosherjava's library, and calender functions from libhdate.

What else are you looking for?

Regarding limud yomi - I'm working on writing some functions for Orayta, but if you feel like doing this yourself, I'd be more than glad to let you do so, and I'll even try to push it into libhdate (I doubt kobi would mind adding it).

Shavua tov,

when i was trying to rewrite libhdate in java I saw it's a huge mess. As for kosherjava is the calculation code
opensource? I could only find API functions.

Simple cross platform API, something I can put into phonegap.

Actually, the first function I'm trying to add is a moving simia that updates everytime I go out of a book.
The second function is tags for the simianiut, it's hard to find them like that..
We really should meet or talk on the phone once:)
