devcal

In case you missed it, here’s the announcement for our public alpha release!

Quick recap: DevCal is a no-frills calendar database as a service, offering a simple API backed by fast and scalable infrastructure. With clients available for Go, Ruby, and Node.js, it’s easy to integrate DevCal into your next calendar-based project. A free API key is available to help you get started in seconds.

Playground: Try It Out

To make DevCal more accessible, a simple web app playground has been created using the DevCal Node.js client, uWebSockets, and deployed on fly.io. The app doesn’t win any awards for UX/UI or code quality—it’s meant to be a quick and accessible way for JavaScript developers to explore what DevCal can do. For developers using Go or Ruby, additional demos are available. While the documentation is minimal at this stage, the code is simple enough to guide users through basic usage. The playground is a practical way to evaluate DevCal’s capabilities and experiment with it before deciding to integrate it into your stack.

But... Why?

Calendars power countless applications, including event schedulers, booking systems, project management tools, and social platforms. However, building a robust calendar backend from scratch can be time-consuming and expensive for startups, small teams or individuals.

DevCal aims to provide a plug & play style service component, in order to make this process simpler and affordable. It's more fun when things get done without frustration.
