   I'm getting ready for a new job and need some tips!

   It is a #dotnet position in an #Microsoft #windows environment, but I'm allowed to use #GNU #Linux.

   I have not tried using GNU/Linux in an Microsoft environment for maybe 15 years. Back then I gave up, but I guess things are easier now with applications like Outlook and Teams available in the browser.

   So far I have a working development environment. Any pointers to applications, setup, documentation or similar I probably need?

     @simendsjo What’s essential for me is getting outlook calendar into Emacs:

     @ArneBab Thanks! Unfortunately, this is Outlook365, and it looks like everything is locked down pretty good. I can access a calendar which shows when I'm busy, but no
     details. Maybe possible to hack this somehow, but I think I have to settle on the web GUI as long as I'm in a large enterprise.

     @simendsjo In our case it’s OWA and getting the data out works pretty well (but took a long time to get working).

     The key line is this:
