There is org-caldav that you can point to an org file and it syncs with a caldav server. This way you can have two-way sync from e.g. a phone's calendar to your org file.
1. Export a .ics file based on your agenda (support for this is built-in) to a shared folder to which your spouse has access (syncthing/dropbox/whatever). Your spouse would then use their calendar app to subscribe to the ics file. When you push changes to the ics file, they would automatically propagate on the calendar.
2. Use built-in org html export features to generate a simple page showing your schedule and either host it on your local network or put it in a shared directory as described above.
edit: sibling comment has a better suggestion (org-caldav)
That said, I'm still trying to wrap my head around how org-mode can work with my existing Obsidian vault. So far it's working pretty well, but I still feel like I'm missing some things to make it really all click together.
although also worth pointing out that Emacs often leads with the adjective self-documenting for a reason. Emacs has fantastic facilities built in to get information on virtually anything. Tutorials with C-h t, manuals with C-h r, apropos and describe- to search for any object etc. And pretty much any major extension like org has great documentation. Which btw I think is well worth reading or at least skimming to get an idea on how much you can do with it.
#+header: :dir /ssh:user@remote-host:/
#+begin_src sql
..
#+end_src Use org-babel to execute the queries, from my “sql-queries.org” file.
Overwrite results into a /tmp file, also an org-mode file, with latest query results (call it anything — “query-result.org”).
Make psql spit out org-formatted tables for extra oomph.
Keep that results file open in another buffer (or frame on a big screen, if the table is wide).
Let Emacs auto-refresh the buffer, when it detects the file has changed.

6. Professor Points: I also get intermediate tex output for free,
which I don't need, but may please you if you are a professor
(or said professor's hopelessly sleep derived grad students).

She also had a rule about promptness of assignment delivery, meaning the start of class when she arrived. Fair enough!
On this one assignment, I had done all but the last question at home, and printed it off, with the hope that I could finish it at the lab and send it to a laser printer in another building. At the time, labs used shared, dot-matrix printers that were usually jammed. I got the last question done, sent it to the printer, then checked the queue. Apparently someone was printing a book, not going to get done before class.
I emailed her my .tex file, with the explanation that I'd hand in my incomplete printout in class, but would appreciate if she could mark the last section so I knew how I did. This was sent well before class, as the timestamp would show. The prof ended up printing, marking, and returning this version, and I received full marks!
