Rip Quick Add Extension

Quick Add was a Google Calendar feature that enabled creating calendar events from natural language text input. This is my attempt to carry on its legacy.

Select any text that has date information (e.g. Movie at 2:30pm tomorrow) and right-click to add the event to your calendar.

Alternatively, events can be created by clicking the app icon and entering the event info in the text box.

Supports parsing dates in the following languages:
- English
- French
- Dutch
- Japanese
- Russian
- Portuguese
- Ukrainian
- Chinese
- German
- Spanish
