## What it is
A Google Apps Script that syncs ICS/ICAL calendar files into Google Calendar far more frequently than Google's built-in 12-24 hour refresh. It runs as a standalone multi-file script deployed in the user's own Google Apps Script environment.

## Use cases
- sync an ics calendar feed to google calendar faster than every 12 hours
- keep google calendar up to date with an external ical feed
- frequent calendar syncing from ics urls
- automatically import ics events into google calendar
- work around google calendar slow ical refresh

## When to avoid
- you need a native desktop or mobile calendar app
- you don't want to grant Google Apps Script access to your calendar
- you need syncing to non-Google calendar providers
