I find default calendar notifications useless. They pop-up 15 minutes before the meeting so they get dismissed, out of site, out of mind. With an integration of Keyboard Maestro, iCalbuddy, Stream Deck and modified shell script I show the upcoming meeting on a Stream Deck key. Stream deck key shows time of next meeting, how long until that is, with background colors changing as it approaches, and how many meetings remain for the day. For the sound effect portion, at 1 - 2 minutes prior and at the meeting time, a sound effect is played giving me the heads up that a meeting is starting. Also at 1-2 minutes prior to meeting starting, the Sonos speaker in the office announces the meeting subject.
