TEDxNTUA 2018

Event website built on Laravel, with information about the conference speakers, schedule, sponsors, and more.

My involvement as a member of the IT Team of TEDxNTUA included:

• Mainly frontend development for custom theming, AJAX navigation and animations.
• Some backend development with Twig configuration and templating.
• Undertaking sysadmin and deployment responsibilities.

Technical overview

Backend

• Built on PHP and Laravel .
• MySQL served as the database.
• Twig was used as the templating language.

Also, laravel-localization was used for internationalization.

Frontend

• Custom theming with vanilla CSS (with SCSS syntax).
• Usage of Bootstrap utilities for the grid system.
• jQuery was employed as a DOM manipulation library.
• Pjax offered a snappy browsing experience by loading pages via AJAX.
• Webpack served as the build tool.

Infrastructure

• Apache was used as the web server.
