In short

Gumb syncs events into the calendar members already use. Connect Google Calendar once with your Google account, in the browser, on iOS or Android. For Apple Calendar and Outlook, Gumb creates an iCal link per community to subscribe to. Each community shows up as its own calendar, every event includes direct links to RSVP, and sync runs one way from Gumb into the calendar.
