Household chore chart: what it is for
List the people in the house and the chores with a weight from 1 (light) to 3 (heavy). The tool hands out the chores starting with the heaviest and always gives the next one to whoever has the least weight, so the totals end up similar.
Each week the adults' sets of chores rotate among them. Anyone with an asterisk in their name (a child, for example) gets half the weight. The list is saved in the browser and the chart can be copied or printed.

Frequently asked questions
How is the split kept fair?
Each chore has a weight. The tool hands them out starting with the heaviest and always gives the next one to whoever has the least weight that week, so the totals end up as close as possible. The following week, the chores rotate among the people.
Can I include kids?
Yes. Add the kids to the list and give light chores a weight of 1. If you want them to do less, write the name with an asterisk (Ana*): anyone with an asterisk gets half the weight of the adults.
