The code powering www.hackuci.com
UC Irvine's first ever hackathon. It is to be held on Memorial Day Weekend - 23rd-25th.
Incase someone else operates this website in the future, i've included instructions below along with a hopefully well commented and structured front-end webapp.
###Overall organization:
- All waivers, info packets, and general documents are placed inside
the
/docsfolder. - CSS, Javascript, and Images are placed within their respective
/css,/js, and/imagesfolders. - Copy-paste mailchimp registration code refer to how to toggle Mailchimp
registration below can be inserted or removed from our main website by
pasting the
/mailchimp.htmlcontents into the/index.htmlcode where specified. - Nginx HTTP server configuration setup is within the
/server/nginx.confdirectory. - CSS is divided into two main files.
/css/style.cssand/css/colors.css. Thestyle.cssfile contains most of the content while colors mainly focuses on color themes for blocks of HTML.
###How to deploy via a server:
- I use the nginx server to host this website because nginx is designed to be a great http server for static files (this entire website is static).
- If you opt to use nginx, read their setup and installation guide
here and paste my configs in
/server/nginx.confinto the setup. - If you opt to use something else like apache server you're going to have to create your own configs.
###How to toggle Mailchimp registration, Eventbrite, etc..
- Within the main page,
index.html, i've left commented blocks where there are instructions to paste in or remove registration, eventbrite, and sold out ticket flags. - For example, if the mailchimp code is online and people are
registering, but registration has now closed and you want to
display: sold out! Remove the mailchimp
block (which you found and pasted in from
/mailchimp.html) and paste in the new Sold Out! block (found in the comments).
