FAQ
---

Why doing a federated calendar when you can send around vCard files via email?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Because this project is about much more than a plain calendar.  It’s also an event organiser,
where you will be able to collaborate with others making events happen.

Why is it not on GitHub/GitLab/any other popular hosting service?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Because running my stuff is one of my hobby.  I run my own Matrix homeserver, my own Mastodon
instance, why would my Git repositories be different?  It might change in the future, though; I’m
not an enemy of said services and if this project turns out to be successful I might move it away
from here.
