It's how you can copy/backup/sync calendar and contacts.
on my phone I installed davx5 which does the copying over to my radicale instance on my server. Then my server backs up my calendar and contacts.
When I get a new phone I can sync all of it over easily. Bonus points, google doesn't have that data.
Is it hard to set up? Sound perfect for what I want, just also seems complicated for my skills haha
