I want to use Radicale and do away with Joplin altogether. I finally understand JTX + Davx5 enough to be able to change my workflow to that. Now, I have around 400+ notes in Joplin. Is there any way to migrate from Markdown to ICS? So far I've only seen the option of an MD table to ICS, but I don't even know how to turn all those .md files into one markdown table.

Has any of you tried something similar before?

Will probably take a good deal of finagling. I've seen plenty of file converters, local and online, but markdown to ICS sounds super esoteric.

Is there even front matter in Joplin files that could fill in the required fields of an ICS?

Experts do allow for md + front matter yes.

I guess I'll just end up migrating slowly. I can import the .md files one at a time into JTX, so there is that I guess.

I appreciate it. After having done a whole lot of research, Lemmy was my last attempt since I didn't find anything.

Fwiw, I found this project that may or may not make a batch export possible (but I can't tell if that includes front matter): https://github.com/kursad-k/joplin_batch_exporter
