As a conference organiser we have to deal with a lot of things, one of them is tracking when and where speakers are arriving and how to arrange pickup for them. This tool tries to replace the spreadsheets used by many conference organisers to schedule arrivals and plan drivers.
Get a PoC out for the TrueNorthPHP Hackathon and work on it along the way.
Initial goals:
- incorporate a list of airports (API of tripit or another service?)
- incorporate a list of speakers (API of joindin???)
- make a nice dashboard for web and mobile
Optional goals:
- oauth authentication using meetup and/or joindin
We want to show this tool as part of the TrueNorthPHP Conference 2014 hackathon, even though it will be hacked together without the proper testing (sorry Chris) in it's initial, prototype state.
Features:
- track a list of speakers attending the conference
- track the arrival time for each speaker at the aiport
- track airport terminal location
- track driver assignments
- API driven
