    What's your target language for the microcontroller? I built a 'smart alarm clock' with what sounds like a bigger screen, that fetches iCalendar files and shows the next appointment/beeps at the appointed time.

    I'm running on an esp32, with platform.io, and esp-sdk + Arduino. Overall project: https://github.com/russor/ClockThing

    iCal library: https://github.com/russor/uICAL (if I had know how much work I'd need to do to make this library work for me... I might have left it with my hacky solution of processing on my own server in perl in a cron... But I had too many messups with that)

    FWIW, Google Calendar recently stopped including real Timezone information in the calendar urls for newly created calendars. I ended up doing something gross to manage that (got a dump of all the tzurl 'outlook' calendar files, and load that before loading the user calendar; it's sketchy, but it works)
