Answer 1

Right now Outlook Calendar is not available for particular react-native, but It's SDK is available for native (Android/iOS). you can integrate it in native Apps by using Outlook Calendar's api and SDK here's a link for Outlook Calendar's api and SDK

There's one way to integrate Outlook Calendar:

You just need to implement the sdk and api in react-native android side then after you need to create a bridge between android and react-native (same for iOS)

Similiar Libraries which can be used Alternatively :
react-native-calendar-events react-native-big-calendar

Answer 2

You should use Outlook Calendar API to interact with all calendar related events :

I recommend to integrate it in your backend to have the possibility to control your data and add some controller jobs (if your app have backend)
