Calendar event file
Download an iCalendar file for Apple, Google, or Outlook, with an optional reminder.

Details
Download an iCalendar file that Apple, Google, and Outlook can open, with an optional reminder. Commas and line breaks in the title are escaped so the file stays valid. Opening the file, or the Google link, is what puts the event on a calendar. This page does not sign in to a calendar.

Limits
Commas and line breaks in the title are escaped so they do not break the file. This does not create the event on a calendar by itself unless you open the file or the Google link.

Steps
1. Enter the title, time, and place.
2. Add a repeat or a reminder if you need one.
3. Download the .ics file or open a Google Calendar draft.
