Reducing use of getLocation #425

Open Mrtcndkn opened 2 years ago

Mrtcndkn commented 2 years ago

I handle my timezones and locale completely separated I've a whole team that handles that and forcing TZDateTime this type on the events and make me implement a huge non-readable getLocation method made me throw away the library. I'd rather kickout the whole feature rather than implementing that. Please re-consider this approach. I appreciate your work on open source community, but this kinda makes it impossible to use unfortunately.

This is a solid idea. However there's also a need to handle calendar events with timezones. Do you have any ideas to 'thin' the library without losing too many functions?

Looks promising

If iOS has something similar, maybe we can make a workaround

Copying the mentioned API here for clarity: https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/TimeZone.html

Should be also possible for iOS
