It’s built with Symfony so it’s naturally using Twig for templating. I’ve become a big fan of the utility based approach to CSS and [Tailwind CSS][1] in particular, so I’m using that for all of the styling, and using [Webpack Encore][2] to compile all of the assets.
|
||
|
||
We have an integration with Meetup.com which we’re using to pull all of our previous event data and store them as JSON files for Symfony to parse and render, which it then uses to generate static HTML to upload onto the server.
|
||
|
||
We’re in the process of populating all of the past data, but look out for a v1 launch soon. In the meantime, feel free to take a peek at our [GitHub repository][3].
