It was awesome! A very interesting project. The blend of Google Apps Script and native JavaScript methods will surely be valuable in my own personal projects. Thanks a lot, Laurence!

I was hoping for a more extensive overview of CalendarApp code. Especially with using the "free/busy" method and finding the availability as well as updating, deleting and adding guests. I feel this course was like an intro to sheetsheet functions more than Google CalendarApp Scripts. Was highly disappointed....
