This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/emacs

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • vdirsyncer

    📇 Synchronize calendars and contacts.

  • I found vdirsyncer which seems like a nice and promising idea similar to maildir which I already use with notmuch, even though it seems too opinionated and the support for Google calender seems largely untested/unsupported.

  • org-caldav

    Caldav sync for Emacs orgmode

  • PS: I've asked a similar question before and I know of org-caldav, which still requires a CalDAV proxy and org-gcal, which only works for Google.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • org-gcal.el

    Org sync with Google Calendar. (active maintained project as of 2019-11-06)

  • PS: I've asked a similar question before and I know of org-caldav, which still requires a CalDAV proxy and org-gcal, which only works for Google.

  • exchange2org

    Connects to your Exchange server and extracts data in Org-mode format

  • As long as I was working for companies that forced me to use MS Exchange, I used that: https://github.com/novoid/exchange2org

  • postprocess_Org-mode_iCal_export

    Adding reminder alarms (defined as Org-mode tags) to your iCalendar export file

  • It's not bi-directional as you would expect it but since my Org-mode is always my "master" for appointments, that was no issue: I created a cron-job that exported my Org-mode agenda on an hourly basis in an iCal file during business hours. You can optionally post-process it with https://github.com/novoid/postprocess_Org-mode_iCal_export to remove sensible information, probably turning it into a simple free/busy list. Then I published it on my public domain (hidden file name) and subscribed to it in Exchange. This gave me full circle so that I had all appointments visible in both interfaces with easy to use Org-mode links to the Outlook items.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
