And luckily you can use redhat7 or centos7, that has python 2.7 and will
backport anything serious until their eol

Hi,
Probably the closest thing to setup documentation that exists for
CalendarServer are the Docker integrations contributed in PRs 513
<https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver/pull/513> and 489
<https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver/pull/489> (neither are merged so far; see following paragraph):
https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver/pull/513/files
Depending on the scope and nature of your new projects, I would advise
somewhere between "some caution" and "an abundance of caution" as you
consider whether to use CalendarServer. On the plus side, the test
coverage is good (both unit tests and integration tests) and the
existing features are pretty stable. On the not-as-plus side, have a
look at the code frequency graph
<https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver/graphs/code-frequency> while ruminating on the fact that this project uses Python 2.7, the support lifetime <https://pythonclock.org>
for which ends in just over one year. The bulk of the dependent modules
(i.e. Twisted) are safe on 3 at this point, however an unknown amount of
work remains to get CalendarServer safe for 3. Someone gave this a quick
shot which is detailed in this PR:
https://github.com/apple/ccs-calendarserver/pull/501 - I don't know if
this produces a functional service, but I do know that the tests don't
pass.
A slightly expanded version of this information:

Developers,
I am interested in creating a calendar and contact server to use in
several new projects. It would allow me make a better options then
existing sites. The problem I face is a good set of documentation on
how to get it setup and running. Development platform for my projects
will be Ubuntu linux of at least 14.04LTS or 16.04LTS. I am willing to
document precisely how to do it if I can find a better starting point.
The current documentation is basic and seemingly missing some
information.
Any help would be appreciated.
