The Open Event Webapp

The webapp is a generic app that has two parts: a) A standard configuration file, that sets the details of the app (e.g. color scheme, logo of event, link to JSON app data) b) The webapp itself


##Features This is a client-side webapp, that will be used by attendees of the event. For Android users we have a native android app. This webapp provides similar functionality for platforms other than Android, that is, to be able to view details about -

  1. Speakers
  2. Sessions
  3. Tracks
  4. Map from the event, with latest available data. It will be responsive, so that it can be viewed from all screen sizes easily. The data will be fetched dynamically from the API endpoint provided by the orga-server.

##Deployment Currently it is just a simple webapp that can be viewed using any browser. In future, we plan to deploy as a webapp for Ubuntu Phone, Firefox OS etc, who support first class webapps. Also for platforms like iOS, Windows, we might port this usin Ionic/Titanium etc.

For deploying locally or making a dist.zip, you'll need bower and gulp Assuming you have npm (Node Package Manager)

npm install

This will get all the dependencies that we already have set up in our package.json.

####Deploy local development instance (using Gulp)

First make sure you have all the dependencies

bower update

Serve on http://localhost:8080 with Gulp gulp webserver
or just
gulp

####Create a distribution-ready folder After testing out locally using gulp webserver and ensuring it works, you can get a ready-to-deploy dist folder

gulp dist

If you want a minified build (css and js files will be minified)

gulp dist-min

You can rsync or ftp the dist folder generated to your static web server.


##Technology

  • AngularJS 1.3
  • Bootstrap (or similar) for styling The webapp will be written using only HTML, CSS and Javascript, so it is completely client-side renderable, on all kinds of browsers, including PCs and smartphones and tablets.
