Jewish Calendar

For those who follow the Jewish faith and want to respect the Jewish calendar, it can be difficult when most of the modern world uses the Gregorian calendar based on the Christian faith. Jewish Calendar is an application that allows users to look up the various months and days of the Gregorian calendar, converted into the Jewish calendar.

The program main functions are separated into four major categories, each one catering to a different problem that Jews might face with the Gregorian calendar. There is a calendar area, a birthday area, a festival area and a year details area, with each one providing a range of different information.

Jewish Calendar is not a difficult application to use, not all the different areas require any input, some of them merely display information, much like a regular calendar. The festival area for instance, users just select a festival from a dropdown menu and the program automatically displays the date for it.

The program doesn't have many options outside of the different features, there are various customizable settings for each feature, yet for the actual application and how it operates, only a handful. There are two different calendar types available based on different religious takes on the Jewish calendar, as well as a display option between the Gregorian and Jewish calendar.

The other options in Jewish Calendar are based around the date format, allowing users to choose between three different date formats. The rest of the options are lacking though, what little there are, there is also a lack of any form of help documentation and real advice based on it. Since despite the simple nature of Jewish Calendar, there are very complicated arguments behind it that are not really explained.

For Jewish people who struggle with the date conversions and keeping track of their religious calendar in comparison to the Gregorian calendar. The options are a bit lacking in the program, but the general function of Jewish Calendar performs very well and will solve most of the date conversion issues.
