== Mozilla Calendar Development Workshop == | |||
=== Introduction === | |||
A mini-workshop will be held by Philipp Kewisch to encourage people to develop core Calendar code or write extensions for it. It will consist of a guided hands-on example on how to extend Calendar, together with some ideas on what you could do to help. | |||
If there is something you always wanted to know about Calendar development, feel free to mention in the sign-up chart below. If interesting ideas come up, the workshop might be extended to accommodate them. | |||
Currently the hands-on example is planned to be a provider that parses hCalendar files. While this itself might not have practical use, it gives a good start into calendar development. | |||
