Zonkant is a free, open-source sun and shadow planner. Treat what it shows as a good estimate, not a guarantee.
The code
The source code is released under the MIT licence. You may use, copy and change it, as long as you keep the licence notice. It comes with no warranty. The full text is in the LICENSE file.
Estimates only
Sun positions and times are calculated for flat ground with no buildings, trees or hills, and are shown in your device's time zone. Real light and shade will differ. Zonkant is not safety-critical: do not use it for navigation, aviation, solar installation sizing or anything else where an error could cause harm.
Never look straight at the sun.
