Galopen – Auto-opens Zoom/Meet links from your calendar
Lives in the menu bar, uses EventKit and local-only logic, and auto-opens Zoom/Meet/Teams links at a configurable time — a small, practical win for anyone who scrambles for links. Switching from Electron to Tauri to shave bundle size is a nice engineering choice, but the idea itself is already served by existing menu-bar tools; what'll sell Galopen is polish around edge cases (multiple links in one invite, recurring/timezone quirks) and a clear UX decision on confirmation vs full automation.
