Create .ics Calendar Event in Visualforce

vCalendarPage.html

<!--
  Simple proof-of-concept to create a .ics calendar event with visualforce.
  Inspired by Natalie Regier @gnatrae

  This example uses url parameters to set the details of event.
  You could create a custom button that invokes this page, like:
  https://<your-salesforce-domain>/apex/vCalendarPage?start={!TEXT(Obj.StartDate__c)}&end={!TEXT(Obj.EndDate__c)}&subject=Event from Visualforce&description=This .ics event created with visualforce&location=The Cloud
  
  An example with literal values you can copy & paste in your browser:
  https://<your-salesforce-domain>/apex/vCalendarPage?start=20140524T140000&end=20140524T153000&subject=Event from Visualforce&description=This .ics event created with visualforce&location=The Cloud
