Your next Add to Calendar Button
The convenient JavaScript Web Component, which lets you reliably create beautiful buttons, where people can add events to their calendars.
For everybody, who wants to include a button at their website or app, which enables users to easily add a specific event to their calendars. It's main goal is to keep this process as easy as possible at maximum compatibility. Simply define your button configuration and everything else is automatically generated by the script. Supporting calendars at Apple, Google, Microsoft (365, Outlook, Teams), Yahoo, and generic iCal.
The script, since it is a web component, integrates easily with any usual HTML webpage (VanillaJS way) as well as popular JavaScript frameworks and libraries like Angular, React, Vue, Svelte, and more.
Works with all modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) on Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS as well as rather restricted webview environments like the Instagram in-app browser.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/add-to-calendar-button@2" async defer></script>
Option 2: npm

npm install add-to-calendar-button

Find detailed installation guides for the most common ones, like React, Angular, Vue, Svelte, or Astro at add-to-calendar-button.com/#installation.
Configuration
A button can be easily created by using the respective custom element.
<add-to-calendar-button></add-to-calendar-button>
You can then configure the button by simply adding the options as attributes to it. Boolean values (true/false) can be set as optionName="true" or simply by adding optionName to the tag. Not setting it at all would be automatically translate to "false".
Minimal structure (required)
Mind that for auto-generating rich snippets, a location would be mandatory as well.
A time zone is not required, but recommended.
<add-to-calendar-button
name="Add the title of your event"
startDate="2022-02-21"
options="['Google']"
>
</add-to-calendar-button>

endDate="2022-03-24"
startTime="10:13"
