The annual Open Source Bridge conference and Pedalpalooza event both have online calendars which are not very mobile friendly. These were my quick solutions to help attendees/participants (myself included) more easily navigate the schedules. Implementation involved cross-origin page scraping and reformatting/restyling with JavaScript and CSS. When added as a bookmark to a mobile device’s home screen, they behave like standalone apps. The source code is available on GitHub.
