This repository contains:
- A JSON file (
context.json) containing the schedule of the Bin Packing Seminar Series. - A program that reads the JSON file and outputs a static website for the seminar.
Other seminar organizers can use this program as a template to make their own seminar websites.
- Pleasant and simple UI.
- Responsive: works well for many screen sizes, especially mobile and desktop.
- Performant: low page load times and few HTTP requests.
- Light and dark mode friendly: switches to light mode or dark mode depending on user's system preferences.
- Time zone handling: specify a default time zone and times will be displayed correctly, taking daylight-savings into account. For example, if you specify the default timezone as "Europe/Paris", then "2021-02-24 15:00:00" will be displayed as "24 February 2021, 03:00 PM CET", but "2021-03-31 15:00:00" will be displayed "31 March 2021, 03:00 PM CEST". In JavaScript-enabled browsers, when a user hovers over a time, the corresponding time in their local timezone will be shown.
The generator is written in python 3. First, download the dependencies:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Then, run the generator:
python3 jinjait.py
The output is written to the file index.html.
This repository also contains other assets required by the website:
script.js, style.css, sprites.svg.
To deploy, serve index.html and these assets using an HTTP server.
If you want to make changes to the seminar schedule,
edit context.json and regenerate the website.
If you want to make changes to the website's HTML template,
edit index.html.jinja2 and regenerate the website.
