This repository contains the code for a web backend which provides information to a little infotainment system in the backstage area of a yearly music festival, where I volunteer. I setup the system with a colleague and we do it just for fun (our actual role on the festival is being stagehands).

Every year I volunteer as a stagehand at the AMIGO stage of the Zomerparkfeest festival in Venlo. Together with a colleague, I setup a Raspberry Pi connected to an old TV in our backstage area, to show some practical information in a fun way. As of 2022, the screens mimic the look & feel of Teletext (Ceefax) on Dutch public television.
The frontend (screens) are coded by my colleague and not a part of this repository.
The backend gets the festival programme by fetching and parsing the festival website's HTML code. It also contains a user interface for entering additional details like dressing rooms and soundcheck times.
