Read Original

The article details the specification for valarmd, a daemon that reads iCalendar files to extract event/todo dates and alarms, then writes JSON notifications to a socket for user-defined actions. It explains the current paused development status in Rust, citing challenges with timezone and recurrence rule parsing in existing libraries, and briefly discusses why Golang was considered unsuitable due to its timezone API limitations.
