Desktop Google Calendar sync app built with Tauri + React + TypeScript.

Setup

1. Copy .env.example to .env.
2. Choose one OAuth mode:

Desktop mode (recommended):

• Create an OAuth 2.0 Client ID of type Desktop app.
• Set only VITE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID.

Web mode (fallback):

• Create an OAuth 2.0 Client ID of type Web application.
• Add an authorized redirect URI like http://127.0.0.1:8787/callback.
• Set VITE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID, VITE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET, and VITE_GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI to the exact same URI.

Run

npm install
npm run tauri dev

How sign-in works

• The app opens Google sign-in in your default system browser.
• Google redirects back to a local loopback callback.
• The app exchanges the authorization code for an access token and syncs your primary calendar.

What it does

• Signs in with Google OAuth (desktop-safe external browser flow).
• Supports multiple Google accounts in one view.
• Uses distinct colors per account for month/day events.
• Lets you create events to the selected account calendar.
• Triggers local desktop notifications for upcoming timed events.
• Stores refresh tokens securely in OS credential storage and restores sessions automatically on app startup.

Reminder sound

• Put your MP3 file at public/reminder.mp3.
• The app will play this sound whenever a reminder notification is triggered.
