How to read this

The chips above the board are your lists — one for work, one for family, one for friends. The one you are on renames itself as you type in it; the plus opens a search over the 88 cities Sol bakes and, past them, anywhere on Earth. Give a row a name of its own — “Mum”, “HQ”, “Ana” — and that name travels into the shared link, the calendar event and the saved list. Signed in, the lists follow you between devices.

The first row is home; the others say "tomorrow" or "yesterday" when their date differs from it. The numerals along each row's floor are that city's own hours, with the weekday at midnight. The vertical line is one instant everywhere. The strip above the rows samples every half hour and brightens with the share of cities where the sun is up, so a call in everyone's daylight sits under its brightest stretch.

Sol carries this board in your pocket — every zone under its own sky, scrubbed with a thumb.
