It's been over two years since the original Calendars app developed by the Wikidot community was released, and a lot has changed since then on Wikidot. So, I've taken some of the new features on Wikidot to create one very simple and easy to install calendar app. I present you:
» simpleCal «
The simplest, easiest to use and most beautiful native Wikidot calendar app yet!
simpleCal comes in four variants: mini, wide, full and agenda. Here is a preview of the four different layouts:
| Agenda Layout a list of events  |
Mini Layout miniture calendar, fitting into 200 x 200px  |
| Wide Layout miniture calendar with list of events on the right  |
Full Layout full-sized calendar with toggle event list  |
Features
- zero-config includes (for current month)
- CSS3 transitions
- hovertips indicating time ago and time till event
- one-click event creation
- the AMAZING popup event list! (click on a date to see what I mean!)

How simple is it?
It's really simple. It has only one pre-installation step, and that is auto-numbering of categories. All you have to do is set the cal category as auto-numbered and you're ready to embed the calendars onto your Wikidot site!
Have a read of the installation guide. It's literally two steps.
Acknowledgements
Just wanted to say thanks to James Kanjo for helping out with this project, especially with his handy bug-finding skills — ironing out many bugs before my release :D Without him, some insanely awesome features would not have existed - such as the event popup list!
Examples
Here's a live demo of the wide layout calendar:
