First of all try reading the Get Started with the Calendar API:

The Calendar API lets you display, create and modify calendar events as well as work with many other calendar-related objects, such as calendars or access controls. This document describes how to use RESTful calls and client libraries for various programming languages (Java, PHP, .NET, JavaScript, NodeJs, Ruby, Python, Go, Android, iOS).

All your question is possible and will all depend on your implementation. You might want to check this tutorial - Google Calendar API with JavaScript, this will help you develop a web application to create or display Calendar data.

Hope this helps.
