    This is great. Well done.

    You can use Claude to build this in 30 minutes (in fact based on the UI work it seems you used it yourself). Not sure why anyone would bother to pay for this.

      Claude would RUN for longer than 30 mins building something like this.

      its 29 a year. At an hourly wage of $40 an hour. You would have to spend less than 45 minutes thinking about this and then NEVER touch it again for a year. No security updates, no improvements, no errors that you might have to fix, no handling bots or abuse.

      You would only do that if your hobby is building random things. Not if you are a local teacher or coach.

      Totally get your remark, but this was build as a need of one of our customers (a school). They just want piece of mind that someone is taking care of the technical stuff around it.

      The UI is based on the UntitledUI framework (https://www.untitledui.com/)

      the moat between "here is the code on github" and "here is a viable production-scale setup serving this codebase accessible to someone with only a smartphone" is still worth a lot

      not to say this can't be ansible'd or something, but at the end of the day someone is paying the server costs

    Curious how many folks subscribe to external calendar feeds? My school system publishes a calendar feed. I don’t see any for her various other activities, all with their own apps and ways of organization (or not).

    Right now I feed everything to one shared Google account and then have AI do work on invites, reminders, etc.

    I'd remove the "free".

      Pricing models are always a balance. For now, I just want people to use it, get some feedback and see where it goes. Perhaps I'll change this later.

    Who doesn't already have a sharable calendar?

    Reminds me of a Legal Docket Calendar I made for a law firm in 1999.
