Calendar function without google oder ical

[c.keen]

Hello there,

I am new to this forum and do not really know where to place this question. But I am wondering if there is a possibility to use a different calendar option than google calendar oder ical from apple. I was thinking of an excel table where all necessary dates are filled in. Do you think that this is possible? I have to admit that I am aware of the magic mirror since a little while now and want to build a mirror my own. But I do not want to use either google or apples calendar.

I would highly appreciate it if you could help me with this topic. And even if you have to tell me that it’s impossible to use the calendar without google or apple.
Kind regards,
Nizolai

Reading a local Excel file will be next to impossible. However, a better solution is to import that Excel file into a Google Calendar, then tell MM to read that calendar.

Why do you have to use Google or Apple? Just find a tool that can export ics files and you are fine
