The Open Event Project offers event managers a platform to organize all kinds of events including concerts, conferences, summits and regular meetups. The components support organizers in all stages from event planning to publishing, marketing and ticket sales. Automated web and mobile apps help attendees to get information easily. There are FOUR components of the project:-
- The Open Event Format Definition
- The Open Event Server
- The Open Event Android App Generator
- The Open Event Web App Generator
The Open Event Server offers features for events with several tracks and venues. Event managers can create invitation forms for speakers and build schedules in a drag and drop interface. The Open Event Server exposes a well-documented JSON:API Spec Compliant REST API that can be used by external services (like the Open Event App generators and the frontend) to access & manipulate the data. I would work on adding more features and deploying the V2 version. These features would then be added to the web frontend as well as the android app.
