AI Coding Instructions

  • Keep recurrence construction inside calendar.model.ts rather than duplicating recurrence objects in UI code.
  • Preserve the event shape expected by the Outlook calendar API when changing this helper.
  • Check that meeting start and end values remain compatible with the recurrence range.
  • Reuse this helper for weekly meetings so recurrence behavior stays consistent across calendar actions.
