Caldav / carddav

• Comparison of CalDAV and CardDAV implementations /home/varac/projects/caldav

GUI Calendar clients

gnome-calendar

Issues:

• No timezone support for creating events
• No native caldav/carddav support

Direct caldav support only

• evolution: Big, monolithic application.
  • Not modular still the best choice for timezone support and complex recurring rules.
• Nextcloud calendar
  • Support webcal http auth & store credentials
  • good recurrency support for event
  • No offline support, obviously

Unmaintained

• california: Last tag 0.4.0 from 2014
• Orage: Not usable, horrible UI, was taken out of xfce 19.04
