Privacy-first scheduling for any calendar. No OAuth. No email collection. No passwords. iCal URLs only.

Live at scheduler.dougbelshaw.com.

CalAnywhere creates scheduling pages that show only when you are free, not the details of your events. Anyone with an iCal feed — Google, Outlook, Proton, Apple, Fastmail — can use it. Visitors request a time, you get notified, that is it.

Key properties:

• Email-free auth — Emoji ID (3-emoji handle) + iCal URL as possession factor. No passwords, no OAuth
• Pages expire — each page has a configurable expiry. When it expires, visitors see a clear message. Your calendar details are never stored
• Anti-Big Tech — works with any calendar provider. No lock-in by design

The app will be available at http://localhost. Mailgun is optional — emails are logged to the console when the env vars are absent.

An admin dashboard is available at /admin/login. Set credentials via env vars:

ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
ADMIN_PASSWORD=your-password-here

The admin dashboard shows basic stats and a toggle to enable or disable new signups.
