# Day One

[Day One](https://dayoneapp.com/) is the #1 journaling app for capturing life's moments. **Protocol Launcher** allows you to generate deep links to create, edit, and view journal entries in Day One.

## Usage

There are two ways to use this library:

* On-Demand import from subpaths enables tree-shaking and keeps bundles small.
* Full Import from the root package is convenient but includes all app modules.

Pick On-Demand for production builds; Full Import is fine for quick scripts or demos.

Windows supports calendar, timeline, media, settings, templates, redeem, and blank new-entry links. It ignores entry text, tags, journal, and prompt parameters, and does not support view/edit by entry ID. Use `openTimeline({ platform: 'windows' })` on Windows; the default keeps `dayone://entries` for other platforms.

### Open App
