Jalali date Feature #8018
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am writing as a Nextcloud user and on behalf of many Persian-speaking users to request the addition of official support for the Jalali (Shamsi) calendar in Nextcloud Calendar. For users in Iran, Afghanistan, and other Persian-speaking communities, the Jalali calendar is the primary calendar used in daily life, work, and planning. The absence of this option makes it difficult for us to fully adopt and rely on Nextcloud Calendar.
Adding support for the Jalali calendar would:
Significantly improve the user experience for millions of Persian-speaking users
Make Nextcloud a more inclusive and globally accessible platform
Reduce the need for external tools or unofficial workarounds
Given Nextcloud’s strong commitment to open-source values and serving diverse user communities, native Jalali calendar support would align very well with the project’s philosophy. We kindly ask that this feature be considered for prioritization, or that a rough roadmap or guidance be shared if possible.
If needed, the Persian-speaking user community would be happy to help with testing, feedback, or documentation.
Thank you for your continued work and dedication to the Nextcloud ecosystem.
Kind regards,
Mehrpaad Koulaeian
