Purpose
Setup a simple web site, with an easy to remember URL: http://sophia.events, and acting as a hub which lists the incoming technical events in Sophia-Antipolis.
The rational
A lot of great stuff is happening in Sophia:
- meetups
- events from TelecomValley
- events from RivieraJug
- ...
... but it's not always easy to follow all the sources.
Some people ask about a place that lists them all... here is a simple attempt that tries to answer this need.
How to run it
Clone de repository
$ git clone https://github.com/lucj/sophia.events.git
Run the wrapper scrip
$ cd www && ./test.sh
A web server is run locally, the timeline is available on port 8000
Status
TODO
- make a clean and appealing header
- display event logo in the corner opposite to the date
- define events.json file describing all the events
- use simple Mustache templating to build index.html
- Add tab listing past events
- modify css to have more items on the same page
- Expose RSS feed
- Add TLS
- create a backend to automatically fetch events form list of sources
- have fun on this side project :)
