The course platform now exposes a per-course iCalendar feed for deadlines:
https://courses.datatalks.club//calendar.ics
We should document how students can use it.
Suggested docs content:
- Explain that each course has a calendar feed with homework deadlines, project submission deadlines, and project peer review deadlines.
- Explain that the feed is generated from the current course data, so deadline changes appear when the calendar app refreshes the subscription.
- Mention that Google Calendar refreshes subscribed calendars on its own schedule, so updates are not instant.
- Add steps for Google Calendar:
- Open Google Calendar.
- Go to Other calendars.
- Choose From URL.
- Paste the course calendar.ics URL.
- Add the calendar.
- Mention that Apple Calendar, Outlook, and other calendar apps can subscribe to the same URL as an iCalendar feed.
- Add a short example using a real course slug once the target docs page is chosen.
