Description
We're using a endpoint on the backend to calculate the dates for a given recurrence rule.
Instead we could use this lib: https://github.com/jakubroztocil/rrule

Research direction
The issue names the recurrence widget and its backend date-calculation endpoint; locate both entry points and review the rrule library linked in the issue. Replace the backend-dependent calculation with the library in the widget, then verify that recurrence dates still match expected rules and that the endpoint is no longer needed.
