Ask HN: Any rock solid ICal parsers?
I have tried a few JS based ICal parsers. I also see there are parsers in other languages like PHP, Swift, Java, etc.
The JS ones I have tried at least seem buggy, don't handle time zones well and/or don't handle recurrences correctly.
Is there a rock solid and well tested library (any language will do!)?
What do Google and Outlook use, or do they use their own proprietary tech?
