#events

Build a valid RFC 5545 iCalendar (.ics) event from simple parameters — and get ready-to-use "add to calendar" links for Google, Outlook, Office 365 and Yahoo. Pass a title, start and end (ISO 8601 or unix timestamps, in UTC) — or a duration in minutes, or an all-day flag — plus optional location, description, URL, organizer, an RRULE recurrence (e.g. FREQ=WEEKLY) and a reminder (a VALARM N minutes before). The service returns the fully-formed .ics text with correct escaping and 75-octet line folding, a base64 data: URI you can drop straight into a download link, and the four calendar deep-links. A second endpoint parses raw .ics text back into structured JSON events. Everything is computed locally with no network calls, so it is fast and deterministic. Built for booking and scheduling flows, event pages, email "add to calendar" buttons, reminders and no-code automations. A calendar-event builder — distinct from date/time math (datetime), public-holiday data (holidays) and the Jewish calendar (hebcal). No upstream key, no cache.

Historical events, notable births and deaths, and holidays for any calendar date — "on this day in history" — relayed live from Wikipedia. Get today's curated highlights, or pass any date (e.g. 07-20 → Apollo 11 Moon landing among the events) to retrieve notable events, births, deaths, holidays/observances, or the editor-selected highlights. Every entry carries the year, a one-line description and a link to the relevant Wikipedia article. Ideal for "today in history" widgets, daily-content apps, trivia, newsletters and educational tools.
