Show HN: Tagada – A Gmail extension for faster, more structured replies

Hi HN,I’ve built a Chrome extension called Tagada to make replying to long, cluttered emails less painful. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to parse a dense email thread and craft a thoughtful reply, this might help.What it does:- Lets you highlight key phrases in an email and tag them by category (e.g., question, request, update). - When you click “Reply,” it auto-generates a structured...

I work mostly in PHP, and when I started this project, most of the libraries were very incomplete. Customer needs led me to develop a more complete library and it's only recently that I proposed this library as an API. But, yes, much more complete and easy-to-use packages have appeared since then, although they still focus on events and don't allow to manage tasks or notes.

Thank your for your feedback. I fixed that. Sorry about that.

Yes. Given the feedback so far, I will probably switch to a "pay as you grow" pricing.

Not yet! With the feedbacks I just received, I want to improve the API before posting on PH.

Thank you for your comment. There is indeed the possibility to specify the timezone, but the documentation is obviously not detailed enough on that. I'll clarify that.

Thank you for your comment. Defining the price and associated features was really not easy for me; I hesitated for a long time but you gave me some very good leads!

In fact, not all languages have a library as simple as the Node package you are pointing at. Most libraries require you to use the iCalendar standard syntax which, for a single event, is accessible but becomes complicated for a recurring event for example.

But for the Node package you mentioned, you are absolutely right.
