<p>OpenCalendarKit provides a lightweight public plugin for recurring opening hours, closed days, a monthly calendar, an optional event notice, and an optional “status today” output.</p>
<p>It is built for restaurants, cafes, shops, and other small businesses that want a simple and clear way to show:</p>
<ul>
<li>opening hours</li>
<li>whether they are open right now</li>
<li>special closed days</li>
<li>a current notice or announcement</li>
</ul>

<li>Global display settings for legend, title, week start, and time format</li>
<li>Internationalization-ready visible strings and WordPress-aware date/time output</li>
</ul>
<p>The current Public 1.0 scope does not include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Reservation or booking workflows</li>
<li>Multi-location support</li>
<li>Block editor blocks</li>
<li>Advanced event management</li>
