Project Abstract: Open Event Webapp

This summer, I have worked on Open Event Webapp Project. The project has two components a) a event website generator and b) the actual generated website output. The website generator application can generate event websites by getting data from event JSON files and binary media files, that are stored in a compressed zip file.I have worked from scratch and added core functionalities to the generator and also on the actual frontend provided to the user. The Webapp generator also has support of a Rest API. Websites that are generated by the "web app generator" can be uploaded to any web location, e.g. on Github pages or any server (e.g. via ftp).

The second meetup was in association with Google Developers Group, New Delhi focussed on helping developers to understand OpenEvent and use open event to generate their event webapps and android apps.
