Browseable archive of past conferences?

... or turn this "static" website into a search engine for front-end conferences with Algolia?
You would need to:
- create a nunjuck template to build a JSON index;
- push the updated index after each build on Algolia (maybe with https://github.com/chrisdmacrae/atomic-algolia ?)
- embed client-side instantsearch widgets to allow search, filtering, etc.
Maybe @Haroenv could even provide some guidance here? 🔍
That'd be neat!
I'd say maybe a bar-for-usefulness here is that 100-conference bar where it's starting to get to be too many to easily browse through quickly.
Same kinda deal with:
#37
I like the idea of a search filter though since it would solve filtering on just about ANY level, name, topic, location, etc.
This is definitely something that can be done as described by @DirtyF. We'd just have to be careful in the ranking formula, that it only contains custom ranking, on the date property. Then we could add distinct=10 to the months, with a "load more" button.
Indeed I'd say a few more conferences could be added first to make it really useful and worth the effort.
This is working, but not yet linked up anywhere: https://conferences.css-tricks.com/archive/
Maybe some subtle fake tabs across the top of the page...
