MyGes Calendar Scrapper

This project scrap my scool website for retriving the calendar. Then it send a ICS file containing all the course of the week and a screenshot of the calendar to a discord webhook.

It's a simple personal project to learn how to use Puppeteer, but mostly to compensate the solwness of the website.
