Overview
The calendar module brings powerful and realtime calendar support into the OpenPaaS platform. It is composed of several components:
- A frontend component. Built using Angular.
- A backend component which can be split into two parts:
- A DAV compliant backend built on top of Sabre
- A specific backend, built using Node.js, which mainly listen to specific technical events and so provides realtime support and data indexing.
