Frequently Asked Questions

Store the IANA timezone name (Asia/Kolkata, America/New_York) not just the UTC offset. UTC offsets change during DST transitions. The IANA name lets you correctly expand recurring events across DST boundaries.

For timed events: ISO 8601 with offset (2025-06-02T10:00:00+05:30). For all-day events: date string (2025-06-02). Use the date format without a time component — this signals the event has no specific time.

Store the RRULE string from RFC 5545 (FREQ=WEEKLY;BYDAY=MO) rather than pre-generating all occurrences. Generate occurrence dates server-side when needed. This keeps the stored data compact even for events that recur for years.
