Possibility of making plugins for Thunderbird calendar?
I'd like to make a plugin that adds an icon to the days of the calendar indicating the phase the Moon will have on that day.
There seems to be little up to date documentation on making extensions for Thunderbird's built in browser and there doesn't seem to be any information on making plugins that change the calendar. Is it even possible to make such a plugin? If so, what is a good starting point for learning how to do so?
Cheers.

But I would guess there is not much as your talking user interface, not calendars anyway. you would be referencing a date, determining the phase of the moon and adding an image to the display. To determine actual underlying object names (and some of the JS in the user interface, use the developer toolbox in developer tools on the tools menu. The object inspector will be very helpful.
Now if I had a tutorial on exactly how that worked. yay. But I do not. It is however basically the same as the one in Firefox. So I guess that would document it. https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/
