If I understand, this is meant to run on a computer 24/7 in order to sync changes on either end to the other end.
It sounds to me like this could run on e.g. a Raspberry Pi or a VPS.

Are there any plans to make this service available as a Docker image?

This is designed to run in Outlook, and synchronize a calendar between Outlook and a service that Outlook would otherwise not be able to synchronize with. In other words, if you want to view a calendar in Outlook, but Outlook can't view that calendar, then you use this tool.

A side effect of this is that this tool can actually be used to synchronize calendars between multiple services as well, by using Outlook as the "middle-man".

So you need Outlook for this tool to work.

I'm sure someone could modify this code to directly sync between two services, but that's not strictly what this tool is designed to do (as far as I can tell as a long-time user).

Ah, my bad, I thought this could run independently and connect to Microsoft email servers by itself.

I will leave this open in case someone wants to implement this.

You might be interested in a tool like: https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer

It appears that someone has already dockerized it.
