Secondary calendars
Describe the solution you'd like
Secondary calendars (Persian Calendar or Jalali calendar in my case) to be shown along with Gregorian calendar. For example May 24, 2026 would be Khordad 3, 1405, or written in Persian:
سوم خرداد 1405
I believe there are other secondary calendars as well (Chinese calendar, Islamic calendar, etc.). This is a feature that would help Nextcloud be adopted in countries around the world which do not use Gregorian calendar.

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating where Gregorian dates are rendered in the Calendar app and review how localization is handled. Define the supported secondary calendars and their display format, then verify that the Persian example appears alongside Gregorian dates.
