About Google Calendar Weekend Highlighter
Custom Colour for Weekends in Google Calendar
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LET'S GO DARK! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Works with Calendar's DARK MODE too! The extension AUTOMATICALLY detects dark mode and renders in a dark fashion the colours you chose! Yay! :) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Important NOTE!!! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< If it doesn't work, before giving a low rating contact me via the Assistance Channel or via Mail: I will work with you to solve the issue! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> DONATE! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< If you LIKE THIS EXTENSION, please consider a DONATION (LINK is in OPTIONS PAGE or you find it if you RIGHT CLICK over extension icon!). A coffee will be just fine! :D
Choose custom colours FOR EACH of your week's days! Those days will be coloured with your custom background colours, highlighting your calendar in ALL "views" of NEW Google Calendar (2018 and further)!
At first install, you will be automatically redirected to options page, where you will have to choose your Google Calendar's page language (MANDATORY), and the colours for all your days. If you prefer NOT to highlight a day, simply leave it WHITE. Choose light colors also for dark mode, the extension will automatically detect DARK MODE and darken your colors (leaving black the non-highlighted days).
In OPTIONS page you can now donate me a coffee, too! :)
NOTE: sometimes while working it could stop highlighting the weekend columns; in that case, try to click on an empty space on the calendar or press F5 (refresh page) and the weekend columns will be correctly light up again!

Data source
User counts are read from public Chrome Web Store listing pages. Google displays rounded user counts (and caps the display at 10,000,000+), so small changes may not be visible. Rating counts above 1,000 are rounded (e.g. 1.6K).
