Generate ical (or equivalent) from course schedule for term

[jasonhemann]

It would be really useful to have an iCal download per course, or for faculty members, all of a user's courses for a term.

I agree that this would be a good feature and I would totally use it myself. We could add another icon to the classes panel that exported the class to iCal or Google Calendar.

Courseoff has a similar feature and we could copy some ideas from how their feature works. If you want to work on this lmk! I'd be happy to point you in the right direction.

Random note I actually did work on a feature like this a while ago but never finished, that code is here: https://github.com/ryanhugh/searchneu/blob/master/docs/Unused.md#calendarjs

So uh the new banner actually supports exporting to iCal:

It's a little annoying and a little inaccurate (last week was a little screwy), but it works pretty well.

@edward-shen, I didn't know about that feature (I think I'm not the only one)! Great find! Happy to close this out as already solved.

Hm... well, looking at it, I don't know that faculty have that view.
