csigitam.github.io's Issues

Better team page organisation

Currently, we are managing team pages as team-<YYYY>.html files.

The next logical step is to use static data files to generate the pages instead.

Possible solutions:

• Use Jekyll to retrieve data from YAML files.
• Use Angular to retrieve data from JSON files.

In our use case, Angular may be overkill for now since we cannot guarantee that every new web dev team will know Angular, nor can we expect them to learn it due to its steep learning curve. In contrast, Jekyll has a much simpler structure and easier to learn.

If there are other ideas, do put them forward. For now, a complete restructuring for this website with Jekyll seems to be the best way to proceed.

Edit: We are currently simply using HTML/CSS(Sass) with Bootstrap 4.1.1 which means for any future update, we need to deal with HTML tags. Jekyll or Angular use data files to generate the file (in Jekyll's case) or dynamically update the file (in Angular's case).

Symposium section on homepage

Add a section for the upcoming symposium in the home page and also update the events page.

Things to include:

• Title
• Dates
• Basic intro
• Website link
• Secondary link for events page
• Poster

Exactly UI layout is your wish. I’ll recommend commenting out the carousel section for now.

Website redesign efforts

We need to work on migrating our website to Jekyll for easier data management. We can, of course, leave the current layout ‘as is’ but I suggest planning ahead for a redesigned UI.

I’ve been working on some ideas & prototypes a while ago, so please share any suggestions you may have for the same.
Suggestions can be related to anything: UI, Theme, UX, Content, Pictures, Features, etc.

Please add me also as admin to this GitHub

This will will of great use for updating future events related to GITAM CSI
