Hi everyone

I'm trying to degoogle as much as possible. I've heard about this thing called calDAV and cardDAV but I have no idea how to use it.

With radicale, do I need to install some other somewhere in order to use it?

I'm just looking for basic useage for myself only at this stage. I'd like to be able to self host my own calendar and contacts. Is radicale appropriate for this?

Is it safe to self host a calendar?

Can a self hosted calendar still send and receive invites to other calendars?

Any help greatly appreciated, thank you

I found Radicale easy to install and set up. Unfortunately, using it with an Android phone means Davx5 - there really doesn't seem to be a viable alternative. And I couldn't get Davx5 to work after days of effort, so I gave up on the idea of self-hosting contacts and calendar at all.
