Add calendar functionality to UI #9

Open thatcherfreeman opened 5 years ago

What we want here is that the user can upload some sort of standardized calendar document, and then the dates will be displayed on the visualization in some way.

The calendar format we should support is icalendar (.ics). There should be a library that can parse these files that we can use to read the dates of the events in a .ics file.

When a faculty member uploads a .ics file, it should simply be stored locally on their machine and not uploaded to the cloud.

Code now parses calendar events properly, but we need to present them in the visualization when there are time-related visualizations.
