Local Development / Setup Instructions

Install Node.js and Package Manager

Before you start, ensure you have Node.js and a package manager installed on your machine. Follow these steps:

1. Download Node.js:

   • Visit the Node.js official website.
   • Download the v20.18.0 version. This was the latest LTS version when the project was created.
   • Follow the installation instructions provided on the website.

2. Verify Installation:

   • Open your terminal or command prompt.
   • Run the following command to check if Node.js is installed:

     node -v

   • You should see the version number of Node.js.

3. Install a Package Manager:

   • Node.js comes with npm (Node Package Manager) by default. To check if npm is installed, run:

     npm -v

   • Alternatively, you can use other package managers like Yarn or pnpm.

4. Run the Development Server:

   • Once Node.js and a package manager are installed, you can start the development server:

     npm run dev
     # or
     yarn dev
     # or
     pnpm dev

   • Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

Introduction

This project aims to create a modular conference website with reusable components. By the end of the conference, we envision a theme repository that can be easily forked to build future conference websites with minimal effort—just update the theme and data.

This approach aims to:

• Avoid reinventing the wheel each year.
• Continuously improve the website's user experience (UX), accessibility, user interface (UI), and performance.
• Focus on refining the theme and upgrading underlying packages before each conference.

Your contributions will help us achieve this vision. Let’s build something amazing together!
