What is Homework Planner?

The Homework Planner organizes your school assignments with due dates, priority levels, and subject tags. See what's due soon at a glance, mark assignments complete, and never miss a deadline with a clear visual timeline of upcoming work.

Assignments are stored in your device's local storage, so the list survives a page refresh and stays private. A priority chart counts high, medium, and low items so you can see at a glance whether you're under pressure. Filters by subject and priority help when the list grows past a dozen items.

How to use

1. Step 1 — Add an assignment by entering the title, subject, due date, and priority level (high, medium, low).
2. Step 2 — View assignments sorted by due date. Overdue items are highlighted in red, due-today in orange, and upcoming in the default view.
3. Step 3 — Check off completed assignments. Filter by subject or priority to focus on what matters most. Delete old entries to keep your list clean.

When to use

• Tracking concurrent assignments from multiple classes during exam season.
• Planning a week of study after the teacher hands out a syllabus on Monday.
• Group projects where you need to see who has the closest deadline first.

Result

You add 'Algebra problem set' (due tomorrow, high, repeats weekly), a 'French Revolution essay' project with three steps, and a 'Biology midterm' exam. The exam shows up in its own banner at the top counting down the days left, while the rest stay sorted by due date.

FAQ

Where are my assignments stored?

Everything lives in this device's localStorage under the key freetools-homework-planner. Nothing is sent to a server. Clearing site data on this device or opening the page in a different private session will wipe the list.

Can I share my planner with a study partner or my parents?

Not directly across devices, but you can export the list to CSV and send the file. Opening it in any spreadsheet shows title, subject, due date, priority, and completion status, which is enough to compare schedules.

How are overdue items decided?

An item is overdue once today's date passes the due date you entered and the assignment is still unchecked. Overdue rows show in red so you spot them first. Marking the item complete moves it out of the overdue group instantly.

Why use priority levels instead of just due dates?

Two assignments due the same day can carry very different weight. A 30 percent final essay outranks a 5 percent worksheet. Tagging High, Medium, or Low lets you sort by what actually moves your grade, not just what's next on the calendar.

What happens to completed assignments?

Completed items stay in the list with a strikethrough so you have a record of what's done this term. Use Delete on individual entries (or Reset for a clean slate) when the term ends and you want a fresh planner.
