In the past months, #volunteers have contributed translations in 15 languages to the #OpenWebCalendar! Thank you very much!
Release 1.50 is on its way with your contributions.
Thanks also to @weblate for providing a web interface to make it easier to contribute translations.
If you feel called, to add or improve your language to a privacy friendly calendar for websites, follow this link: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/open-web-calendar/
I am grateful: The #OpenWebCalendar is one of the #opensource projects that get funded by @NGIZero this year!
We have funding for a lot of the #Python stack that it takes to build #calendar applications and #share the appointments via #ICS files: #icalendar #XWRTimezone #RecurringIcalEvents #ICSQuery #Mergecal #Caldav

💗 #OpenWebCalendar is now translated to #suomi (#finnish) thanks to Ricky Tigg
#public #funding of #opensource #critical infrastucture goes a long way.
Read an opinion on how @nlnet's funding of #Python's calendaring stack does not only benefit end users through the #OpenWebCalendar but contributes to a vibrant #digital, #decentralized and self-governed EU #economy. #Collaboration and #competition in the digital market require open-source and public standards.

Thanks to the funding by @nlnet, I added #event sign up via email to the #OpenWebCalendar. In this tutorial, I show how to enable others to sign up to your events on your @nextcloud #calendar.

I am creating a series of #videos about the #OpenWebCalendar which you can embed into your #website with privacy and customization features. I wanted to use @peertube but I do not have an instance for that. Who could I ask, is there an instance that would host some technical tutorials? 🤷
I use #youtube for now but I would like an #alternative here.

The #OpenWebCalendar has a new #UI!
You can head over to https://open-web-calendar.hosted.quelltext.eu and try it out:
- #edit the #calendar AND see it updating
- #encryption protects #private calendars and the #password
- #CalDAV support
- Change the size to see how it works on other screens
In the picture, the URL to the Personal CalDAV calendar is encrypted and the events show up.
Technically, I really enjoyed #flexbox and #CSS variables i.e. for the dynamic resizing.
The #OpenWebCalendar now supports #encryption of #calendar URLs to protect sensitive data like passwords.
Now, you can publish an #event calendar on your website even if you require a password for it - without anyone seeing the password.
Try it out: Head over to https://open-web-calendar.hosted.quelltext.eu and click the encrypt button!
Thanks to @nlnet for the funding!
I got the shirt from #tidelift for raising the security of several software packages for #Python and #icalendar. This, #rfc5545 is used in so many places to exchange calendar events freely.
You can directly support my work, too: https://open-web-calendar.quelltext.eu/contributing/
I completed all the tests to #Tidelift the #opensource #python #package x-wr-timezone.
Tidelift helps your company to secure the supply chain for the free software dependencies of your solutions. It is worth checking out if you care about #foss #sustainability.
