ice_cube is a Ruby library for defining and querying recurring event schedules using an iCalendar-inspired rule syntax. It lets you build recurrence rules and quickly check occurrences, such as whether a schedule falls on a given date or when its next occurrence is.

Use cases

• create recurring event schedules in ruby
• check if an event occurs on a specific date
• list all occurrences of a repeating schedule
• find the next occurrence of a recurring event
• model iCalendar-style recurrence rules in ruby
• exclude specific dates from a recurring schedule

When to choose

• you need flexible recurrence rules (daily, weekly, yearly, complex patterns) in a Ruby app
• you want fast queries like occurs_on?, next_occurrence, or occurrences between dates
• you're building calendar or scheduling features in Rails or another Ruby project

When to avoid

• you need a full calendar UI or event storage solution rather than schedule computation
• you're not working in Ruby
• you need timezone-heavy or collaborative calendar sync features out of the box
