Calendar Events Functionality

Description

Calendar events. You can create an event with different repeat settings, we want to explain how to create and manage such events.

Repetition

The system is built with the possibility of creating separate and recurring events. Each type of event can be created using a specific recurrence pattern, such as:

  • Does not repeat: A one-time event.
  • Daily: The event recurs every day at the same time.
  • Weekly: The event recurs every week on the same day and time.
  • Monthly: The event recurs every month on the same date and time.
  • Day of Month: The event recurs every month on a specific day of the month.
  • Custom: The event recurs according to a user-defined pattern.
