kandi X-RAY | open-web-calendar Summary
[Build Status] [Try it out][web]. There are several commercial solutions which allow embedding of calendars into my website. I only have a link to an ICS file and want to show a nice-looking calendar on my site. Browser-only calendars usually have the problem that many ICS files can not be accessed (such as ownCloud/nextCloud in my case). I also want to be in control over who knows the people who visit the site and not pass everything to Google. This is a solution in my case which I share with the world. You are free to use it or deploy your own, modify or share it. It works offline and in company networks, too. Features - Embedded calendar - Choice of time zone - ICS link, best multiple - month/week as a view - name, time of event, link? - showing the time span - styling of choice (icon, color, font, …).

QUESTION
What is this about
I'm developing a web application in NodeJS to display information about the agenda of the users which are synchronized with the central server of my University. For that, I wrote a script that downloads an ICS file every hour to update my local agenda (stored in an SQLite database).
What seems to be the problem
Someone reported to me that some events in their agenda aren't synchronized properly with the University's version, the start time differs. Here's the problem. I have an Event A and an Event B which are both displayed as starting at 6am UTC on the university web page. But, when I retrieve them from the server in iCal format, they are represented as such (I've removed the properties unrelated to my issue) :

Answered 2021-Oct-12 at 21:59Welcome to the joys of daylight saving changes and timezones. Somewhere there someone is viewing dates with a timezone set as most people do, this is expected. There are 2 dates there, and it appears one is one side of a daylight saving change and the other is on the other side.
Unlike UTC some timezones have daylight saving and of course timezones don't change from/to daylight saving at the same time, so lots potential for multiple time differences to appear to be inconsistent across events.
If we take London as an example, on the 8 of November 2021, london time is same as UTC time:
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?day=8&month=11&year=2021&p1=195&p2=136&iv=0
However on 25 October 2021, at 6am UTC time, London is 7am.
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20211025&p2=195&p3=136
Always check what timezones are set on every device and calendar app and be alert around daylight saving changes.
